Many sites I have looked present boost equations like the one shown on page 6 in https://www.garrettmotion.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/GAM_Turbo-Tech-103_Expert-1.pdf. In them they state that for a modern 16v 4 cylinder engine the volumetric efficiency is ~95% while in a pushrod engine closer to 80%. Now, https://strikeengine.com/engine-volumetric-efficiency-calculator/ implies that forced induction engines have much higher volumetric efficiency because of the, well, forced induction. So, is the first equation using N/A VE values?
