I'd really like to know what others are seeing for MAP
at idle from 800 RPM to ~2000 RPM.
I can't seem to get below about 15inches Hg.
Would any of you guys who have flown or have smooth
running engines at idle please respond with what your
normal MAP vs RPMs are for the low end around idle.
I have a TWM DCO 48mm throttle body and a short Atkins
manifold.
Thanks,
Jim

>At 2000 I'm seeing a 13.1 MAP reading.  Seems low to
me.  Is it? That puts it below the stage point, yet
when I turned off the primary injectors, it
continued to run; just rougher.  Same effect turning
off the secondaries.
