that depends on what you call goosed.
if you mean the seals have gone then yes you can still get boost
if you mean the blades are missing then you're getting boost by the hand of GOD (or any other GODlike item you would like to choose)
BTW, i think GOD or any derivative of it is a pile of shite. Religion was and still is a way of keeping the masses under control, for either good or bad.
