With any motor I wait for minimum motor want max motor but do not sit there for 10 seconds waiting to squeeze 1% more n2/n3 out of the starter, you are not achieving anything significant by doing so. You reach a curve where the potential stress on the engine during start dropps off exponentially and the wear and tear on the starter increases exponentially.
