I assume its not until your part throttle enough to hit 0 vacuum that boost comes in?

Technically, you're always making boost with the amount of boost being RPM dependent, but the bypass is bleeding the boost all off if you're not on throttle. As soon as you open the throttle by stepping on the accelerator, the bypass would close and you'd have boost.
You only need about 1/3 throttle to hit 0 vacuum; you can fully modulate the boost at will, using the accelerator. It's literally like driving a larger engine, in terms of power delivery.
