Default Boost thresholds

Guys, I'm going to change turbos soon but before I fit my td05 I want to make sure mine is boosting properly. I think it is spooling late.

Could you please post your turbo type, 1bar and max boost rpms please?
Then I can compare to mine.

E.g. I have a 03wrx td04 1bar at 3000rpm 1.3 at about 3500rpm.

Cheers
Chris

Its a bigger turbo, bigger = slower to boost up, unless its a roller bearing low friction one and it will be quicker to spool up but probably not as quick as a small turbo

Yes I know that thanks Tony.

What I'm after is real world figures to compare to mine and also as a useful comparison between different turbos and setups. Just so I know what to expect and to see if mine is boosting late at the moment.

Cheers Webby!
