Peak HP does not rise above 480! I would, obviously, believe that it does increase throughout the enhanced boost range, but beyond that; nill.
I'm confident RC will chime in, but I don't think it's RC that doesn't know what he's talking about.


The contradiction seems to be that if the overboost is activated for a duration of 10 seconds then it will be active past 5000 rpm and therefore increase peak power beyond 480hp - If as you say it "switches off" at 5000rpm regardless of whether it has been 5 seconds or 10 seconds then fair enough, peak power stays at 480 hp - In which case the statement that the overboost activates for 10 seconds is untrue
Having said all that it seems like RC's overboost feature has a mind of its own anyway
