The TD04-13G is fairly small. I can't say for certain due to variables, but full spool at 5 psi would probably be around 2700 rpm. I spend most of my driving in the 1800 to 3500 range. The extra power would be nice for getting onto the highway.
The GT15 would probably be a little more efficient for my needs, and spool a little faster... However, that would increase the price by quite a bit.

9.1:1, so not terribly high. There's a lot of guys running 15 psi+ with much bigger turbochargers with that compression.
