I don't know about that Jim. The difference in speed between a Turbo Dakota and a Turbo Arrow is about 15 knots at cruise. Same airframe, same engine. That's even with Pipers best wheel pants. Considering that the speed/drag relationship is not a linear one, I would expect a much larger penalty at Legacy speeds. Has Lancair mentioned any performance numbers yet?

I'll be the numbers will be only slightly short of the Legacy RG with the
same power plant. Properly fitted pants and fairings will  not reduce speed
much.
