Cleared for Takeoff
Wildly spitballing here, so bear with me, please. Let us consider the popular IO-360, making 200hp. What options are there to increase that to ~220 hp? Experimental aircraft.
If you're experimental, can electronic ignition get more horsepower and better fuel economy? How much of each?
What's involved in a custom header for an aircraft?
Does an aftermarket turbo make sense?
How cost-effective is an IO-390? Specifically, the AEIO aerobatic version. Does it have to be bought? Can it be built from good used parts? (Can I get an AEIOU version for the whole range of vowels?)
Are there six-cylinder motors in the right power range?
An O-470 seems it would jump fuel consumption 4-5gph for a 15% power increase. Is there an IO-470?
