Hopefully this is not during one of those attempts to modify the IVA valve operations... If you value your head gasket and engine that is.

Many a moron has modified them to be permanently closed during a de-mandate, only to find out the hard way that it is NOT a good idea ... unless ....

They can be modified to be permanently closed and run the engine at 19:1 compression ratio full time, .. but that also requires the boost to be turned down to 33-34 psi max too. Allowing the boost to go above this = excessive dynamic compression ratio and engine/head/gasket damage.
