According to the description in the Aircraft Spruce catalog wrapping the exhaust creates more horsepower by maintaining hotter exhaust gasses that exit the system faster through decreased density and increasing exhaust scavenging.
I had assumed that the power increase would be so small that you wouldn't notice and that the major benefit would be to just keep temps in the cowl down. Are you seeing a real noticeable increase in power? Can you give an idea how much percentage wise, rate of climb wise, or cruise speed wise? Have you noticed decreased head or oil temperatures? flymaca711...@aol.com wrote: hi all my egt temps are higher now after warping i guess this is normal but like to see if others experienced the same. old temps 1200 1250 climb out now IM see 1300 1350 back to 1200 at cruse 3200 rpms all so it takes longer to come back down at idle. on the tangible side its as strong as its ever been after the intake and exs wrap 3550 static not to shabby intake great planes carb revflow mac n1055a
