Try that with an intercooler.

Just for *****s and giggles I wanted to see where my motor starts boosting.
I was in 4th gear at 1500 rpm and I booted it. At around 1800 rpm I saw positive pressure. That is my boost threshold.
I also noticed no difference when I installed a large intercooler. I think it is a wives tale that intercoolers increase lag. Kinda like the internet rumor that the G50 weighs 100 lbs more than a 915 
If you think about it. The increased area in an intercooler is small and the turbo moves a TON of air. Hence no increased lag
