Basics...
A turbo is a air pump. A turbo uses exhaust gasses (very hot and still expanding) to drive a impellor (think high performance pinwheel) attached to a shaft attached to another impellor. The other impellor forces air into the engine. If there is more air then the engine requires more fuel, this means more power.
The first turbo comes on as soon as there is enough exhuast gas to spool it up. Stock or bolt on mods they should give pretty decent boost by 1800rpm under heavy load.
Second turbo comes on at 4500rpm.

the out flow air from your engine will spin the turbo fan that will pump more good air into your rotor. More air means more fuel and better, more powerful combusion. That give your engine more power without having more rotor or larger one.
