I am still on the fence, but would like to decide
what engine to use. I am building a Large wing Velocity, not the XL.
One of the original designers of that version of the plane recommends that
an io-540 250 horse would be the ideal engine. Now I was thinking of
either a 2 rotor that would be turboed to 200+ hp at sl not at 10K or a NA 3
rotor.
I would like to get a consensus of the
better way to go? Suggestions? If I have to, I could
probably hang the exhaust out the cowl, or modify the cowl so as to get some
airflow over the exhaust to help cool it.

I would go for the Renesis, the RX8 engine if I
was starting today.
It is much lighter for the same or better HP than
a 13b with turbo like I presently have.
