I haven't thought about this, it is an interesting point. More consistent readings of maf sensor would indeed mean more consistent afr and combustion characteristics.

In this case, pressure boost = more power = driver should adjust by decreasing throttle input. It is what I tried to explain with my "hypothetical highway situation" in the first post.

I'm suprised about how difficult it is to find information about partial throttle performance of an engine when it represents 99% of our driving situation.
