The turn rate of the La-5/7 series is clearly overmodeled ingame. (you can actually turn with an A6M Zero in a La-7!) But with realistic turn rates, it still shouldnt have any problems outturning the Fw. According to NII VVS tests, the worst of the Lavochkins, the basic La-5 had 0.5 seconds advantage over the best Fw, the La-5F had 2, and the La-5FN had 3 seconds.
