Yes of course, but it was possible therefore it should be possible in the sim, too. No matter how you look at it, I really try hard to see your point, but you're wrong on so many levels I am afraid. Why are you doing this anyway?

It is approximately 2 times more than original nominal rating. And the RR engineers have had slightly different approach to getting more power from their designs - testing, breaking and consequently reinforcing what breaks first, hence so many mods and pilot notes amendmets that seem to confuse you.
+16lbs was 3 times more pressure and it was still used on Sea Hurricanes on the very same engine for obvious reason - no problem except drastically limited lifespan of the engine.
Honestly, Crumpp
