One additional point though, why normalize when you can run the same 7psi of
boost at all altitudes.  If the turbo can handle 7psi of boost at altitude
it can make the same 7psi of boost at sea level turning even fewer [turbine]
RPM.  The engine can easily handle the horse power, and you have additional
brgging rights.

Shhhhhh, that's my ace in the hole for next years Shady Bend race :-)

My initial thought is to make the boost control completely manual at first,
with the default being off completely.  I can play with different boost
levels during the test flight period, then perhaps set up a more traditional
wastegate actuator at a pre-set level.

Cheers,
