Why then does the p47 D have a supercharger lever in the throttle quadrant that never moves?

I have flown the jug at high altitude a ton... just tonight I was at 35k feet and was not able to attain anymore than 30 inches of MP. That was with a leaned pitch setting to about 80%. I even tried it at max RPM and it didnt help.

That's IL2's way of simulating that the turbo has reached it's maximum RPM and therefore the aircraft's critical altitude.
