Default Need turbo spool time estimates?

Well I got my new Turbo from LSD mike. What he ordered for me and what they sent are 2 different things. He ordered a T3/T04E .63/.50 50 trim for me. They sent a T3/T04E .63/.50 60 trim. That has me concerned. This car is just for street driving. Its going on a bone stock 91 LS. I don't think I will see 8lbs before 4200 rpm. Mike is willing to exchange it for me. Opinions needed.

Thanks
David

Bump for opinions. I have to decide if I should exchange it!
