Ready for that retest.LOL.And I will stick to what I said .I was probably one of the first to figure out how to short circuit an anneroid valve back in 1973.We refered to them as hemmoroid valves back then.I also did some research work with turbos for Sweitzer back in those days ,so I am fairly confident of what I speak.The guy is correct when the govenor and engine speed meets an equalibrium.The problem of either underfueling or overfueling is when the two aren't in balance when the govenor is either calling for more or calling for less fuel and the mixture is not in balance with what boost the turbo is producing.Yes ,an anneroid valve does help and the newer computer controlled fuel systems are a great imporvement but not perfect as yet in my opinion.The problem back in the old days was really excaberated when Sweitzer tried to turbocharge a Chevy Vega in the seventies Never could keep a decent balance of air/fuel mixture even with a wastegate.Oh why didn't I listen to that small voice that said don't enter into this discussion.LOL,bob
