What I'm trying to get at is that I would expect there to be a pressure drop in the MAP when the engine is sucking air
at 5100RPM.  I'm trying to figure out what that drop would normally be.

I don't really follow your second question.  I would only open the
bypass when flying above 3k agl so as to not suck in dirty air.  On Wed, Jun 20, 2012 at 8:31 PM, Ernest Christley <echristley@att.net

    Are you running normally aspirated, Mark?  When you go WOT, is it

    I'm trying to decide if my blower is doing anything positive.  At
    WOT, 5100RPM, I'm getting 98% of what the barometer is
