nothing to do with being from the "import" world, its a term used when dealing with turbo forced induction. "overboost" is any situation were boost is not being controlled. close relationship to compressor surge, being that there is boost not being controlled. but that is a whole different subject and not part of the topic.

sorry if i sound like i am attacking. cause i am not. really just explaining what "overboost" is and how its not only a part of the "import world" but anyone that deals with turbos.
