12lbs. is only available on Mk.IIa as you say, but as for the 'dial not reading it' - it's not supposed to as +12PSI is well outside it's range. It just moved beyond +8PSI and pilot felt the extra power although the Boost gauge didn't display it. (in so caleld RL)

What is weird thouugh is the Mixture lever as it needs to be on Auto lean in order to get that kind of boost. Unless they have it other way round at the moment (1.05) this is weird / wrong.

15lbs. Perhaps you mean 16lbs Mk.II Sea Hurricanes with Merlin XXs.

What we've got in game are Merlin III (All Mk.I Spits and Hurris) and Merlin XII (Spiftire Mk.IIa). +12PSI should be available via pulling the plug on all Mk.Is in the given era. Quite OT though, as far I know, tilly orifice has never been fitted in any Merlin III airframe therefore is (imho) out of focus for CoD. We're talking early Mk.Vbs here...
