With an Intercooler cooling the intake charge, wouldn't one be able to increase manifold pressure over a non-intercooled installation (like mine)?  Not sure what the visor or the POH reads, but I would think the opposite of what the OP had written earlier.

Wait....I think I've seen the error in my ways!  As the OP is looking at or for a particular percentage of horse power that % would change based on the induction air temperature.  Cooler induction = more horse power.  So he is 'removing' .5" of manifold pressure per 10 degrees of reduced induction temperature to maintain say 65% horsepower.   

 

Only took me 10 hours to figure that one out, I'm getting better!
