The IOF-240 testing is complete and we are waiting on its FAA approval before finalizing the IOF-550. Does the pilot or the FADEC have control of the propeller? --The Prop control is your choice. FADEC can take full control with the electronic governor. Have you worked on any tuned exhaust for the IO550? --Yes, we have done testing on several designs. Improvements in rated power is less than 3%(9 bhp). Mid-range has more to gain in BSFC.
