Im still a lil confused on how this works (havnt driven a boosted car yet). Say I was in 5th gear doin around 75mph at around 3750rpms.. how would I be able to not boost while doing this if my turbo fully spools at around 3500?

Im just tryin to figure out how Im gonna drive 4hr trips without boosting.

 

i mean dont hit full throttle and you wont be boosting hit like 30-40% gas

 

stay off the gas lead foot... you can keep it out of boost if you keep the load on the motor and throttle position conservative.

 

at part throttle, exhaust gases are not as much as at full throttle, so you can vary the output, as long as naturally aspirated the engine can sustain 75 MPH, the turbocharger will not produce any boost, but most likely you will see a few lbs here or there, which is no big deal, really.

 

Thats cool.. so even tho my turbo fully spools at 3500.. I can drive at 4000rpm but just not giving it much gas.

 

you got it

 

You can drive your car all the way to redline without boosting. Your foot will regulate the boost.

Wow. Never knew that. What exactly do you mean by my foot regulating the boost?

 

The more you have your foot down the more boost you get and if you barely have your foot on the gas at highway speeds it wont go into boost.

i can drive all day without boosting

 

Ok so not boosting means the turbine doesn't spin at all?

 

once u drive, youll understand teh relationship between throtle position and the boost. Hard to explain....you will feel it

Ok but it does spin though no matter what, right?

 

yes they will spin at idle.
it justy wont creat enuff positive prssure to buildboost unless you nail it

and driving out of boost all day sounds easier thna it is , you get that rush and you wanna do it all the time
