And that would be incorrect because skidoos sled is not turbocharged , it is turbo normalized which is entirely different. 

Does it add boost? Yes or no?

It adds 0lbs of boost at sea level. Unless you can provide some evidence to the contrary 

An electronically controlled wastegate maintains consistent boost pressure (up to 4 PSI) and delivers it precisely as needed, to ensure the dynamic performance characteristics of the 850 E-TEC are never lost.

Exactly , it maintains 1 bar of pressure up to roughly 8000’ or so where approximately 4psi of “boost” is needed to do so. It makes 0 boost at sea level. 
 

Please explains to me how 4psi of boost would be the same hp at sea level or at 8000’ :lol: fucking know nothing moron

The wastegate controls the pressure.

Yes and it never allows the engine to realize more than 1 bar manifold pressure which may be up to 4 psi of “boost” at 8000’

The wastegate controls the boost. The exhaust gas is always there. It's is programmed not to allow more exhaust past the wastegate until 8000ft of elevation is achieved. That being said 4lbs could be achieved at see level if you changed programming. It's turbocharged btw.

You have literally zero clue what you’re babbling about. Every fucking wastegate on every fucking turbo controls the boost :lol: at sea level the wastegate is wide fucking open and it’s making no boost. Good fucking god you dumbfuck. It is turbo normalized , not turbo charged. It never delivers more than 1 bar pressure. Holy fucking shit

The 850 E-TEC Turbo also features a unique setup: At sea-level, the turbo does little. However, once the engine and ECU start sensing altitude the exhaust is bypassed through a turbine that creates boost that is then dumped into the cylinders – with the ultimate goal being to keep the engine at 165 horsepower, despite a diminishing level of oxygen that normally robs 3 percent of available horsepower for each 1,000 feet of gained altitude.

That's exactly what I just said.
