Question Turbo question

It would maybe looks like a stupid question but I want to know :

Do we always get boost with the turbos (my boost gauge is not yet installed) or after pressing on the gaz for a while (4500 rpm or more) the turbos needs to recover is full PSI boost ? If it's the case, how long it takes to re-generate the PSI to get back boost ?

I've never had any car with turbos before so I'm curious !

Thanks

Unhappy

I know but that's not until this spring or summer
The RX-7 is in my garage for the winter so it's the perfect time for me
to read and learn on the car

As you know, I got the Seven at the end of last summer so I did'nt had a chance to know evertything of it.

go to www.howthingswork.com and look up how turbos work. the rx7s sequential system is a little more complicated than a simple turbo system, but the main idea is the same.
