a) a slight decrease in indicated boost (ie the A2A model Spit)

b) an increase in indicated boost (ie the CLOD model)

One is correct, the other not. So....which is it?

You haven't said whether you're increasing or decreasing RPM with the prop control.

Increased RPM.....lower boost
Reduced RPM....higher boost
