Hi Kelly, unfortunately the P port engine that was on the dyno faced too many issues to get useful results in my opinion. Apparently it achieved 240 hp at 7500 with the up stream injectors and the slide throttle. This is a low number. I would have expected more h.p. The engine was leaning out at higher rpm due to problems in mapping the EC2. Further testing will be with a prop is planned sometime in the future. The engine idled at fairly low rpm and had good throttle response but without a prop I don't know what that means. Also, no new news in the last few weeks about Mistral. I think the other list shut down for Oshkosh. If anything of interest pops up, I will forward it to you. Jerry

Jerry,
Looks great !! Since I have apparently been dropped from the other list
have you heard any more about the PP (HP,Fuel specifics,RPM,etc) !!
Has any more info been heard from "Mistral's" new intake manifold
