Jim Smith with his 150 HP, auto-fuel RV-6 is reaching speeds of 200 mph TAS using a fixed-pitch, three-blade wood Elippse propeller.

That's nearly 30 mph more than the Ivo, on the same? power.

Ross did quite a bit of prop testing in turbo subie powered RV-6.  I've e-mailed him a few times regarding performance, mx issues, etc. and he still thinks it's a good way to go as long as the Magnum hi pitch blades are used (at least for a/c w/RV type performance).
