So I'm fairly certain I know the answer to this already, but I'm hunting for

If I have a storm raven that turbo-boosts and gets a 4+ Cover save, could I then use SoS to grant it an additional 5+ saves as it technically is a psychic power in the event that it fails the 4+ save?

I'm both instinctive and emotional. I value my own instincts and desires, and either ignore or crush anything that stands in my way; planning and foresight are unnecessary. At best, I'm determined and fierce; at worst, I'm headstrong and infantile.

You can only ever use your best save. If the storm raven is hit by something that would deny a cover save (templates, CC, weapons ignoring cover), it would still have a 5++ save.

There is a (valid) discussion whether vehicles can uses normal saves at all, I simply assume they can.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks actually do not think that purple makes them harder to see. The joke was made canon by Alex Stewart's Caphias Cain books.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe.

No, you simply have 2 cover saves, and you must use the BEST save possible.

Was sure it was 5+++, oh well... getting more coffee, now.

Shield is definitely a cover save. You may be thinking of flickerfields, whcih give an invulnerable save
