Tonight I must decide procedure to use on takeoff. With the control connected to the cockpit it is easy to see that I could apply full power with the throttle and add boost afterwards.
Orma, You might want to keep in the back of your mind, that as airspeed increases the prop will unload, rpms and manifold pressure will increase. Be careful not to use too much MAP on your first flights and have a contingency plan in case the engine were to seize or burn a piston. A type 4 could probably take high rpms better than it would stand for too much boost pressure. Be careful and open the performance envelope slowly. Just my 2 cents worth. Good Luck!!
