Since when did turbo's depend on rpm to build boost??

the higher the rpm and engine load the more exhaust it generates to build boost. WRX also have an unequal length exhaust manifold, which cause alot of turbulence and lag (meaning it takes longer to build boost especially on a larger turbo).

I really dont know much version he has sorry. I am not going ***** out on weight reduction just some little things, like single exhaust, jdm tii hood, ect. I didnt say that turbos relied on rpm for boost, but do you think a turbo would be sitting at full boost on idle? Neither did I.

For all you know his turbo's compressor is smaller than the stock one. If so the car would make 230rwhp and run 14s..

But... but... what about the first replies to this thread confidently stating "you will win, but dont take him from a dig" and "you'll win"?

Are you implying that the given turbo stats are worthless?

Wow this stirred up a crockpot of **** haha. Well bad news, the harness I got for my E6K is for a 13brew so I am in the works of trying to get my damn car running. Were getting snow so the race wont be for months now. I got the turbo and all but havent called to get specs, its a 60-1 compressor, and a .84 ar hotside if I remember what the seller said. Its a undivided T4, thats about all I know as of right now.
