Narrative:

At teb; we were cleared via the teb 5 departure as filed to our destination. We departed on runway 24 and climbed on runway heading to 1500 ft AGL per the SID. I continued on runway heading and at approximately 3 DME the PNF asked if I should be turning right to 280 degrees. I replied that I thought the SID called for runway heading until 4 DME then a right turn to 280 degrees. I picked up the SID chart and quickly realized the 4 DME in my mind was after turning to 280 degrees which should have occurred at 1300 ft (the 4 DME fix was the point at which to climb to 2000 ft). I immediately initiated the turn when new york departure radioed and asked if we had started our turn. The PNF replied 'affirmative we are in the turn.' new york then assigned a heading of 310 degrees and cleared us to climb to 2000 ft. Nothing else was said reference the delayed turn. We were on the ground 23 mins from taxi to takeoff and had reviewed the clearance and departure procedure during the taxi. In the future; I will review with the other pilot any departure procedures 1 more time when we are next in line for takeoff.

I CONTINUED ON RWY HDG AND AT APPROX 3 DME THE PNF ASKED IF I SHOULD BE TURNING R TO 280 DEGS. I REPLIED THAT I THOUGHT THE SID CALLED FOR RWY HDG UNTIL 4 DME THEN A R TURN TO 280 DEGS. I PICKED UP THE SID CHART AND QUICKLY REALIZED THE 4 DME IN MY MIND WAS AFTER TURNING TO 280 DEGS WHICH SHOULD HAVE OCCURRED AT 1300 FT (THE 4 DME FIX WAS THE POINT AT WHICH TO CLB TO 2000 FT). I IMMEDIATELY INITIATED THE TURN WHEN NEW YORK DEP RADIOED AND ASKED IF WE HAD STARTED OUR TURN. THE PNF REPLIED 'AFFIRMATIVE WE ARE IN THE TURN.' NEW YORK THEN ASSIGNED A HDG OF 310 DEGS AND CLRED US TO CLB TO 2000 FT. NOTHING ELSE WAS SAID REF THE DELAYED TURN.
