Turbo questions

Hello there.

I'am a new owner of a94.5 7.3 PSD,and was wondering when should you here or feel turbo boost cutting in,should you here it parked running engine up on rpm or not.And when it does spool up does it increase your horsepower from it's rating.Which my engine says 215 hp.And also I was wondering what the tourque is on my rig a F450 superduty with a 5 speed tranny.

No.

was wondering when should you here or feel turbo boost cutting in,
You should start to hear/feel it by around 1800-1900 rpm, she should be singing to you by 2400.

what the tourque is on my rig a F450 superduty with a 5 speed tranny.
I think the 215 hp rigs were rated at 505 tq.
