Very good question. The answer is "no." Peak ICPs are controlled nicely. The additional FF provided by the fuel controller covers that problem in conjunction with the decreased volumetric efficiency. Mass airflow-type systems like Lycoming's make it a non-issue. The TCM fuel controller handles the increased O2 a different manner, but it works just as well.

Max MP
So then if AA placards t/o power MP = 35.3" then that is what we use in the equation for MaxMP when calculating cruise HPs, correct?
The AA data from their table however correspond more accurately to the formula when you plug in 37" as MaxMP. |

Sounds like they may have forgotten to include the exhaust back pressure effects in their calculations. Not sure how they got their numbers.
