Actually, those numbers are for the T-28 turbo kit that Street Flight provides. Toms full boost rpm level is a bit higher.
Right, it depends on the boost level. I was pushing 6-7 psi around 3500 and 8.5 psi around 3800. I suspect that I could hit anything up to 15psi by 4K rpm.
With a 3L I don't need boost below 2800 rpm, and with a manual, I definitely can launch in the 3000 rpm range if I want to. I can keep it in the boost the whole time I'm draggin if I only had enough traction.
Spend your money on traction and your time on learning to launch these cars. That will pay better dividends in getting good times in the 1/4 then thousands on nitrous and turbos. Of course, no amount of skill can help in a rolling start on the freeway when you want to pull away from a fast car. Better get money for mods if you want to do that.
