Hi See,
I posted the following up in the ATAG thread: This is taken from the game data using kegetys.dll. These are pre_beta so not sure if it's changed since. Basically, the MkI and Ia have 0.002 lbs/sq in extra boost (ie nothing)
You need to look at the NominalPressure entry for normal max manifold pressure, and the WEPPressure entry for boost cut out.
Quote:
The Mark I and Ia are modelled up to 6.25 lbs/sq in. Boost is 6.252 lbs/sq in. Yes, that's an increase of 0.002 lbs/sq in when boost is engaged.
Check the MerlinIII entry in the engine.fmd file:

Cheers
EDIT: Don't forget that you need to jiggle the throttle a little after engaging the boost otherwise it won't 'take'.
