Side question same idea, What do most good turbos spool up at how high RPM's? Mine starts to spool at 2500 RPM to about 5 PSI and at 3000 RPM it is steady at 8PSI, Is this what most do?

I reach 10psi by the time the motor hits 3k rpm. You should start to see boost around 2000rpm on a turbo that is suited for street driving. If you are going drag only, you want it to kick in a little higher -- less broken axles that way.

depends how big the turbo is, a bigger one needs higher rpm.
