I also don't understand why he think a turbo's spool up is dependant on max boost level running. Regardless of running 10psi or 20psi a turbo will spool to 10psi at the same rate. It's just once it reaches 10psi the "wastegate" will open so it stops producing more boost.

Ummmmm, I dont! cool Where ever did you get that idea from??(looking back over his posts..)A turbo's spool up is not dependent upon its max boost, its dependent upon the Exhaust Temp, the Amount of Exhaust flow, the Size/shape of the Exhaust side of the trbo, and the Size of the Compressor wheel... No wher ein there is the MAX boost of the turbo.. I think you missunderstood my whole Put too big of a turbo on an engine that cant handle it thing...Let me simplify this.. Yo know what a T76 Turbo is right? Try running that on your old 2.6l but at the same time decide you only want to run it at 10psi... then tell me what you come up with after thinking about it...
On another Note, when your super60 only flowed a that small amount, can you tell me what Size Exhaust turbine you were using, and the housing size(A/R) along with size of the opening of the wastegate? See all of these play into effect on CFM a turbo can flow..especially at max boost(not so much when you are at lower boost levels)... anyways.. off to school.. have fun!
