There are a few holes in the logic ( Large and small compressors don't rotate at the same speed.

Relationship between volumetric flow rate and mass flow rate is strongly affected by temperature.)
The trouble with trying to write a desciption of a relatively complex process is that if it's short enough for the average web user to read, you can't adequately describe the process, and if it's complete - well, no one will read it.
Here's a link to an excellent description turbocharger optimization for a given appilation. http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbob...imization.html
And surprise, surprise... it's not just to strap a bigger turbo to whatever engine you happen to be running.

Precisely the reason why I said "let's assume" for simplicity sake.
