what is honestly, the point of revving a turbo engine to 9K? there aren't many turbos out there that will be able to keep up with that kind of powerband (ie. not run out of breath by 9K) and still be decently streetable.

9k rpm's or in general hi revs can be very effective with a turbo, the key is the turbo has to be set up "loose" so it doesn't spool too early.

"streetable" that's a whole other question. IMHO it aint gonna be much fun in city traffic. A properly set-up turbo bottom end should be low compression and you're gonna have no (very little) power below about 3500+ rpms.
It won't make for a stump puller at low rpm's, that's for sure.

i dont want fun in traffic that equals problems and unsafe and i am using a hi flow turbo so it will be enough to move the car as a regular NA supra till i get into my boost range that the whole point of building it that way to have it streetable and not fun when i smash in to someone being stupid in town so ill stick to the highways
