I cant remember for sure, but think I was briefly at full throttle. That would be around 5300. The point of the runup was to see what tuning changes needed to be made after the change back from the DNA to my original muffler so I'm pretty sure I ran it through the full range.

For anyone who hasnt had that first engine run and is looking for some motivation. A buddy visited the hangar a few weeks ago and shot some video of an engine runup. He posted it to his website and you can find it here:

 This was shot right after I re-installed my original muffler after the aborted DNA muffler test. Noticeable in the video is the big staging bog. I had this tuned out about 15 minutes after he shot the video.

Near the end of the video, after the Cessna flew overhead, what RPM did you run it up to?
