Yes, the blower wooould have lost some of its power compared to sea level,
but what I would propose is turbo normalizing, so the increased power is

of
no use at sea level. Of course, it could be used to provide a boost for
take off and such.

Now, for all of the "IF"s !!! Not that many induction systems would
take the added pressure without modification.

But Jim. . . If the engine is just returned to sea level conditions, where
is the pressure? At your given example of 8000', the manifold pressure would
still be less than atmospheric pressure, would it not?
