Seems like it would be easy enough to build one for a couple hundred bucks with gas engine throttle body and choke cable. My old 5.0 Mustang had a 70mm TB, it'd need to be... about 100mm. I'd think the aftermarket would have one for the newer 4.6 forced induction applications, and just activate the butterfly manually. There's got to be a gas engine with a round TB that's close, either OEM or aftermarket. Just guessing here.

yes i heard it was rare. But my truck came a little turned up and he said he just moved the fuel plate forward but who knows what else was done 
. I know it barely smokes and has a manual boost controller pushing about 30psi. I just wondering if any one has or makes a manual shutdown that i can run with stock intake or even a after market one but a filter is a must. Im always paranoid thanks guys.

ehm, Mison and Argon are used as shielding gasses when welding, i don't think it's flammable but the contrary... if it was flammable you wouldn't be able to weld with it...
I generally use Mison 20 as a shielding agent no matter what i'm welding...

It works ... especially with someone on the cab that can put it in gear at the lower rpm's .... once safe to enguage or dump clutch .... be outta the way though ....
ever seem what happent to metal when u use dry or wet extingusher .... not pretty ... was wondering if halon would be another option... carbob dioxide would be another great option... dont use a regulator , for obvious reasons
