Years ago a Porsche nut in San Diego, had Mark Kinninger at Black Forest build him up a twin turbo 4L monster with some sort of electrical boost storage system and tanks so there was instantaneous power with very poor control and gas millage but hey it is only $$$$$$. They did some work on it at the guy's rice rocket shop and FORGOT to hook back up the boost limiter power to the electric pop off valves! It went "really fast" according to the owner till the engine actually blew two cylinders and heads off one side and fractured the case so it looked like a mosaic piece of fine art. Mark figured probably 20 bar of boost to do that??!! So I guess it would work.........
