Joe Horwath of Revmaster says that the engine can go to 40" manifold, but
engine repair will follow soon. He said, "Emergency use to save your plane
only."
3200RPM and 34" of manifold on take-off only will translate to maximum
engine life.

Orma,
Been giving a little thought to your turbo installation. Seems to me you

"The turbo could be sized for a car application,"
Exactly the turbo is from a car application. The amount of boost is
actually ok for the present time. I have seen 35 on the MP gauge and feel
that I can tweak the tuning of the engine a bit more. If I'm now working
your number correctly, all I w
Hello Net
As I requested yesterday, I would also like to hear from all operators that
have a homebuilt plane with a Volkswagen with a turbo. I want to know how you

Thanks Rich for the response. I apologize in advance for asking so many
questions.
Can you describe your system. Are you saying that you have no waste gate??
Are you flying a Revmaster 2100D?? Do you have a manifold pressure gauge or
Boost gauge. What do you get for pr
Blowoff systems are commonly used on fuel injected systems. Some blowoff
valves recycle the discharge to the intake however.
