So when you are maintaining 5000 RPMs with 50% throttle and jump the load up significantly to bog the engine down to 4500RPM's (500 revolutions per minute) all while maintaining the same throttle position, you have effectively increased boost because the engine has slowed down it's air intake significantly while the supercharger has only done this marginally. This creates a boost situation.

And it has also significantly reduced
outake of spent gasses too. In other words, the exhaust valves are cycling less now from the engine rpm drop and effectively create a temporary "backstop" while the supercharger pushes the air in and so the intake manifold increases like a balloon blowing up with a small hole in it instead of a large hole where most of the air would go right through it. So, the more the load jump and rpm drop, the higher the boost effect. Correct?
