I fished a Turbo Jett out to mount (long after any instructions were misplaced) and noticed the lack of a pressure tap. Any suggested locations to drill and mount one? Thanks again!

All of the turbo jett muffler should have a pre-installed pressure tap on them when they ship.

Which size do you have ? I can try to get the correct location for you.

Bob

location can be anywhere on the back face... (flat surface). Closest to the engine possible. Usually just "aft" of the engine adapter/header works fairly well.

Bob


btw... what engine are you using this on ?

Bob

The muffler is going on a sport jett .46 and then in a Hangar 9 Aresti. So I'm drilling at the yellow arrow in the attached image. Thanks again!

Be sure and post a few photos when you have the plane all together!

The photos here are that same engine/muffler combination in my P-51

Turns the crud out of a 10x6, likes big props fairly well too 11x4, 11x5. Good trade of rpm for torque.

I fly the P-51 with a 12x4 ---- trying to slow it down a bit Ground peak is right at 14K rpm, and I fly it set around 13,400

Also runs nice with the 12.23x3.75 prop.

In your aresti, start out with the lighter props..... work up.
