No you wont.

And how would you hit “max speed”?  
If the throttle is being held half way the car is only going to accelerate to a certain speed and hold, it doesn’t just keep increasing.

If you’re talking about turbo spooling, it depends on your setup. At less than half-throttle I can hit my “full boost” of 6 PSI. Depends on exhaust gas flow and turbo size etc etc…

If I understand your question…

If I dont’t know then i ask… If you think it’s stupid then don’t asnswer . Becasue I believe no question is stupid. If the Forum don’t let me learn by asking what you slim is a stupid question then I will shut up and go somewhere else. well thank you all who help and not making stupid comment. And if it is such a obvios quaetion then i wouldn’t get different answer.

It was a stupid question.  
A better question would include car/engine/turbo information.  
An even better question would include exhaust/intercooler information.  
Saying what psi full boost is MAY help… just a little.

It’s just like asking “Whats the top speed of my car?” without mentioning what car & mods you have.

Quit yo bitchin and get things right.

With my car, I can hit full boost (10psi) at 1/2 throttle no problem.  
Ca18, gt28r, 2.5" exhaust, fmic.
