Sounds like they did their own throttle-by-wire type of
thing?  Where the throttle plate was controlled not by the
foot, but only opened engough to give certain amounts of
boost?

Sounds like that would work, although it sounds like it'd be
pretty complicated to develop.  I don't think I'd ever want
to trust the throttle to some electronics that I come up with
anyways.

Or was this a 2nd butterfly, so that you still had direct 
control with your foot?  That, at least, would be pretty
fail-safe.
