Dollars to doughnuts......Lance it is!

I saw that an overhaul is about $50k on a turbos 540.... Ho....lee....crap! $30k on the NA is still wicked expensive!

You're comparing the cost of a 350hp against a 260hp most likely, turbo should be about $3-5k more depending on the exhaust. I think you're talking Factory Rebuild "0" time as well.

What's an OH run on the turbo lances? I was looking at Pen Yan and saw that #.

Last I checked (a couple years ago when dad was getting his done, a factory reman was around $60-70k. $50k for a non factory OH is probably reasonable. You could probably find cheaper depending on the shop.

They make TBO with a top end of at least 4 cylinders. The only people I ever see make TBO with no cylinder issues are those who run LOP. Bottom ends make TBO irrelevantly to LOP/ROP. The difference is in how many cylinders and valves you change getting there, and how much fuel you burn.

EGTs are not that relevant as a number as long as they stay below 1750°, and you'll never see that LOP. CHT and its trending is the number critical to engine operations.

The 206 I flew never needed to replace a jug, most recreational pilots aren't all the great at engine management on long descents and whatnot.
