The reason boost is not related only to engine rpm and
time is that it is the VOLUME of exhaust (and hence
it's velocity, temp and pressure - but I'm supposed
to be simplifying here for illustration ...) that you
care about.  Less throtle, less exhaust gas, less turbo boost;
even if rpm is constant.
