Default at what rev a T3 hit full boost in a b16?

I got a t3 48 hot 42 cold with 8psi internal wastegate for free..I really want to know at what rev it would hit full boost and if being at full boost at low rpm would affect gas mileage
I know that its a tiny turbo and will spool like crazy and better is a t3/t4..but Im curious
thanks

2.5 - 3.0 K rpm probably... you'll choke up top for sure...

yes, it affects gas mileage. more air = more fuel.

do yourself a favor, and do your car a favor. sell the t3, and go for a t3/t4, you'll be much happier once its all said and done

yeah for sure, unless you driving to make the b16 have tons of low end power and no high end that the short stroke offers.

that turbo would be a waste of time on a b16. i bet it would loose a lot of power at top.

spend some money if you wana go fast.
