The speed of the turbo is the rpm that it is spinning at, and it doesn't have anything to do with engine rpm. Depending on the size of the turbocharger, it has an operating range that it is most efficient at and it also has a MAX rpm. If you look at a compressor map there are arches running across the map, at the end of the arches is the turbo speed. This is rpm that the turbo would be turning at for that P/R (pressure ratio) and flow rate( amount of air the turbo is putting out, lbs/min, kg/s). Max rpm is limited by the speed of sound and the material the compressor wheel is made of . The rpms are usually expressed in tens of thousands of rpms and might be labels with a "K". Small turbos like a garrett T12 have a max rpm of 220,000rpms, while large turbos like the GT60 has a max speed of just 77,921rpms.

What drives a turbocharger?
A turbocharger is driven by the energy in the exhaust gasses from the engine.
When was Turbocharger invented?
The turbocharger was invented by Swiss engineer Alfred Büchi in 1905.
Is every engine fit with turbocharger?
No. There are two types of charger to give the engine more air than it would be able to suck in naturally; a Supercharger and a Turbocharger. The supercharger is an electrically (usually) driven fan that compresses the air. A turbocharger does the same job, but it is driven by the flow of exhaust gases through a small turbine. Thus the turbocharger has a small lag time, for it depends upon engine speed for its performance. Whereas a supercharger is independent of the engine operation. Of course, many motors manage quite well without either accessory.

What is a blow off valve and how does it work?
The blow-off valve should not be confused with a waste-gate. The waste-gate is a device that by-passes the turbine wheel of the turbocharger, limiting the shaft-speed of the turbocharger. Therefore, limiting the boost (pressure) that the compressor generates and keeping the turbocharger from over-speeding. A blow-off valve is mounted in the intake plumbing between the turbocharger compressor and the throttle plate. The blow-off valve is a second safety measure against the turbocharger over-boosting and damaging the engine. The blow-off valve is more commonly used to keep the turbocharger spinning when the throttle plate is suddenly closed. When the turbocharger is generating maximum boost pressure at full throttle and then the throttle is suddenly closed, compressed air coming from the compressor slams against the throttle, generating extremely high pressures that travel backwards to the compressor stopping the compressor from spinning. When the throttle plate is again opened, the engine must spool the turbocharger shaft again. The effects of this high pressure can also be very damaging to the turbocharger.
How do you Run engine with fouled turbo charger?
You should never run any engine with a faulty turbocharger. The oil in the turbocharger can catch on fire. You will need to either fix the turbocharger or remove it.
