Not to be the second smarty pants but,,,,,,,,,,, a well designed engine with thousands made with precise manufacturing so they all are about the same, with tuning designed to minimize getting on the pipe and trying to develope extra HP with fancy special tuning components, just may not require an EGT setup at all. Rotax engines for example, are specifically detuned for long life aircraft applications, have a rather benign exhaust system, and no special HP building performance options,,, and there are lots and lots of them around too, and Rotax sells the exhaust with every new engine which discourages aftermarket hype, and problems related to screwing with a good thing. you may want to rethink your statement, and Ill bet your primary experience was with racing two strokes, not flying them,,,,,,,,,, -- Mark Smith Tri-State Kite Sales http://www.trikite.com 1121 N Locust St Mt Vernon, IN 47620 mailto:mark@trikite.com |
