yep.  Flashback: early 70's Accel marketed a kit that did it.  Overspeed at
part throttle/high load conditions.  But wow! the thing would hit (fast) with
big boost, when you stomped the pedal from a part throttle load.  The turbo
would be spinning at a bazillion rpm, in high vauumm,  and then the butterlfy
opens to feed it air..yeow!
