Just to put it in perspective: it's bigger than the turbo that Duke is using on his 16 valve high flowing engine which is presented on one of the threads here.
Laws of physics: the bigger the compressor the more exhaust pressure is needed to power the thing, given a certain size turbine wheel/ housing size combo.

As for the Lindsey #8 vs the "Porsche" #8; are you looking on the inside, where the cross-sectional area meets the turbine blades?
If it's a bolt-up turbo, wouldn't they both be kkk? It should be the same size. The original #8 had a 55mm wheel at the outlet. What size is yours?
I see 1 bar in 4th at about 3,800 and from 1 bar to 20psi in about another 400 rpm. I also see 17-18psi by the top of 1st gear.
