Hey, Jerry
 
I now have two turbo rotor housings that I feel free to try some PP stuff.  I understand that you cut the hole with a hole saw.  Did you then clean it up with a boring bar or something similar or just ram the aluminum tube down the hole {:>)?  Any prep to the hole other than removing debris before putting the tube in it?  I have your dimensions but will await your reports on results before cutting.

Thomas, my set up will not produce 250 hp because I have the 2:17 drive. However, I still do have some hp to play with. I could sacrifice 10 hp and still leave the airport vertically. Power Sport claims 215 hp without ram air so I should do somewhat better than that. I will consider your suggestions tomorrow when I have the engine in front of me, but at first glance they look good. Some kind of double plenum will be required, the first one supplied by ram air and housing the air filter and the second plenum feeding the bell mouths. Jerry
