Higher flow will always reduce boost, although it may increase power, provided the mixture doesn't blow out too quickly due to excessive valve overlap.

Boost is essentially a measure of restriction in flow.

Ultimately, boost is a somewhat variable number that doesn't tell the whole story -- what really matters is cfm and cylinder pressure

Bring on the dynos!!!
