    Subject: Re: IO-360 B1E (180 hp)
    It's not enforced, just the desire of the pilot to limit the MP, the same as with an engine that can exceed redline rpm. Do you think you would limit the MP on takeoff from a short strip with trees at the end to abide by a redline on the gauge? And it wouldn't hurt the engine at all to do so. There are lots of turbocharged engines that have MP pressure redlines well below what they are capable of or what the pop off valve is set for. Let's say the MP is limited to 25" hg as Gary mentioned, then you would still be able to achieve full "rated" power at 4000 ft msl as that is where you would still be able to develop the redline MP of 25". Of course that assumes you have a CS prop and not a fixed pitch where rpm would be much lower for takeoff and therefore much less HP.
