Calculating mass flow of 52 lb and pressure ratio of 2.4 atmo (.9 bar of boost) generates a point that is right on the edge of the choke line of both compressor maps. Lay that same point onto the GT35r map and it is comfortably to the left of the choke line.
This is why the hot rod 964 Turbo S wasn't boosted above .9 bar by the factory. The air at 1 bar would be really hot, so that there was little hp gain and lots more thermal stress placed on the engine.
