Re: Fw 190 A-8 NL?

In addition to the performance-enhancing MW-50 system, the A-8 was equipped with increased emergency power as standard from July 1944. This allowed the boost pressure at ground level to be increased from 1.42 ata to 1.58 ata and at higher altitudes to 1.65 ata. This measure led - depending on the altitude - to an increase in top speed between 22 and 25 km/h, whereby, for example, the maximum speed of the Fw 190 A-8 rose from 548 km/h to 578 km/h at ground level and from 644 km/h to 652 km/h at an altitude of 6300 m. In contrast to the C-3 injection system, no additional fuel injection was required here. As with all systems for special and emergency engine power, its use was limited to ten minutes (although it could be used several times per operation after the engine had cooled down.[21]
