Yes WEP speed for Ki-44-II as well on US TAIC calculations
It needs W-M boost to achieve 1500hp
It says methanol there

The crazy thing about the Ki-44-II is that…
When it uses its Water-Methanol boost… it achieves 25m/s initial rate of climb at standard loaded weight.
It is estimated to reach 5000m in only 3m 50s using W-M boost
I wonder if the BF-109K-4 with DB-605DC at 1.98 ata can beat that with C3 fuel + MW50

Based on Spitfire Mk.21 - PP.139
(2nd prototype of Mk 22)

Quick question….
Was the +21lbs/in boost for Griffon 61 also used during WW2?
