Have you enlarged and ported the waste gate, or is it stock? You can also add a standalone waste gate, but you would have to machine a somthing for inbetween you exhaust header and the turbo. here is a link to the turbonetics stuff: http://64.225.76.178/catalog/wastegate.html (that's linked from http://www.turbonetics.com ) $240 or $430 plus some ducting from that to outside the cowl. on the other issue - how about, move into the the hangar? or borrow an RV or camper... re Marko -----Original Message----- From: Rotary motors in aircraft [mailto:flyrotary@lancaironline.net]On Behalf Of Russell Duffy Sent: Saturday, September 13, 2003 7:01 PM To: Rotary motors in aircraft Subject: [FlyRotary] Good news, Bad news This is with the wastegate fully open. I need a bigger wastegate, or some exhaust restriction. Do I try to work on it at the hanger, or do I just pull the wings off, and take it back home. This makes more sense, and wouldn't be that hard to do. It's just painful to think about.
