Awisto Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Overshoot is generally when boost goes over the desired boost level, i.e spiking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 It is also know as "scramble boost", as seen in Fast and Furious 4 for about half a second in the street race section It gives you an overboost of x psi for y seconds. The theory here is that your engine can take a few seconds of overboost before heat-soak induced detonation rears up. I consider it to be both dangerous and pointless.
