How is a 64/14-71 at 2000rpm on the freeway

How will a turbo this size compare to the stock turbo cruising down the freeway at 2000rpm? I run a Smarty on #9 with stock injectors. Will there be a noticeable lack of power until getting higher in the rpm range? I have a Super B Special coming and want to know what to expect on my commute.

Well my turbo has a few different characteristics but they are similar. At 2000rpm mine lights pretty fast and hols solid at 50psi. you'll like it

Excellent, thanks for the replies. I found a dyno graph where a 62mm was down 100hp from a stock turbo until 2200rpm, but that was a 24V so hopefully that isnt the case on 3rd gens.

I dont know about that turbo but thats where mine really starts to shine, on the interstate mine lites almost instantly cause of the rpms, i wouldnt worry about it there, its around town you should notice more of a diff.
