im building a 2.0 zetec turbo and will be using a gt2860rs turbo with a 0.64 exhaust housing running about 20psi boost, just wondering what revs the turbo will kick in roughly ?

Things like cam timing are going to effect it, but somewhere between 2K and 3K it should start to make proper boost.
The problem though at that sort of boost pressure, is that you'll probably find by 5K or so that its starting to really tail off again, so not ideal for a performance application.

A bigger turbo would be the best way to help it hold on longer, although of course it will start later then too.
But if its just a road car and wont be driven particuarly fast anyway im sure you will love the quick response of the turbo you have got already, not just in terms of the rpm that it works at but also in terms of when you are cruising down the motorway at part throttle at 3krpm and touch the throttle and it will just fuck off in a hurry as it will spool so quickly
