turbo???
Kurt, I sourced a small intercooler off a wee Toyota Starlet (New Zealand -
might not be called that in US) and it took very little modification to fit.
I sits just under the upper cowl (std 0200 cowl) and I have fabricated a
f/glass air shoot to channel air from the front inlet to it. John

Agreed John,
I used eyebolts there too with straps and nets. I
also pull that baggage fabric as tight as I can before
it is velcroed in place to spread the floor load. I
added washers under the floor to raise it just a tad
too. Still worries me.
But now you have to tell us how you intercooled the
turbo???

Kurt,
To all. This can only be done if the engine is injected.

Well that explains it. I can imagine a backfire into
a fuel ladened intercooler could be messy.
Now how do I convert to injected, which I prefer, and
a 2 plug head? $$$$$$

Two plug heads are available here in NZ - or were. My engine was originally
EFI so I'm using the original injectors but have a Link Electrics ECU. I
have dual primary ignition into a MSD switcher to single secondary. J.

Hi John,
Is that a Sub 4 from Rotor Flight Dynamics, Inc that
you have? They were listed here at Sun&Fun back in
2000 with a complete engine package. They had a
Florida point of contact listed too. Just found them
on Google.
In any case, what is the HP output of your engine?

No Kurt, mine is just a stnd EA81 T EFI model. And yes, that was Sub 4 and
still going I think altho the original brain man behind the heads has left
and gone out on his own. nckm(at)wave.co.nz was his e-mail last time I
communicated with him. Neil Hintz is his name, very nice but over busy chap.
