You should use XTU 2.1, version 3.0 won't work on your laptop.
Stress tests never initiates Turbo mode.. Intel has a desktop gadget tool to monitor Turbo Mode status. You can install it observe the actual freq. of your CPU
Or, if you wish to stick with XTU, i recomend you compress a lot of files to 4-5 RAR archives with Filename encryption is enabled. While doing this, you can see your CPU is going higher than 2.5Ghz i think.
