calgary,
I have been having a little trouble wraping my head around spool rpms and such so I want to ask a few questions to come to a conclusion.

(when I say full spool I mean if you mbc is set to 15 the rpms you are at when you hit that psi.)

1) 1g or 2g?

2) Size of your turbo?(eg. t25,14b,16g,20g etc)

3) Auto or manual?

4) Any mods to exhaust or intake side that would effect spool rpms(Downpipe,porting etc)?

5) Full spool rpms from a dead stop in first gear?

6) Full spool rpms from rolling around 2000-3000 in 2nd or 3rd gear?

If I have missed any thing then just add it. I have done a lot of searching and thinking about this but there is really no thread on this where everyone just puts their results for all to see. Thanx for the input and hopefully I will come to a definitive conclusion.. Please answer all the ?? if you are going to participate 3 of the 5 won't help me very much. Thanx again.. TTY ;)
