#Turbochargers seem to increase pressure, not consume it (not that I'm complaining, but *what?*).

This is when I first noticed, and I just screenshotted it because "cool, funny thing"
Oh, before I give any more info, context: I was messing with injector/turbo hybrids and this engine was 3 injectors, 1 carburettor, one cylinder. The carburettor was turbocharged by five chargers, four recieving six gas from the cylinder, qnother reciving the final 2.5 (cylinder gave off 26.5 gas)
Have to go now, be back with more stuff.
Day two of messing around with this. this again comes from the same 26.5 pressure setup.
From what I can see, more turbochargers on carbourettors increase the power, and amore turbochargers on a single carburettor increase it more than just turbochargers.
Will now attempt to investigate in a somewhat organised and scientific way instead of just lumping carbs and cylinders together.
With a little fiddling with overheating on a dedicated test platform, I've managed to recreate the effect. I'm not sure how though, I think it's got something to do with either overheating or additional turbochargers.
Looking into it further, I think that the problem (?) is caused by removing and then replacing turbochargers.
Here's a bp of the platform:
hi, ive run into the same thing, someone told me i should post it here too as more evidence that this is still a thing:
here's three screenshots, the two feeds (one turbo with 25 pressure passed on, and one cylinder outputting 5 pressure) and the pipe they feed into at 55 pressure
and one of the ludicrous exhaust temp it created
