Paul,
I found this about a new Australia Ford that uses a turbo that might be
useful.  I find the boost pressures interesting.

See link posting by Glen--re the turbo used in the Ford

My browser was unable to connect to the second web site.
The first one had no details on the turbo other than it was
a stock Garret unit. I drove a Falcon in Australia and I really liked
it. Great car.
