Hi Oli and Alan:
Maybe I am misinterpreting the spool time concept.
What I mean with 3 seconds, already measured in my P-80 non SE, is the time between the throttle stick full up ant the turbine starting to accelerate. I do not remember if I have measured the time between full thottle up and full rpm.
Would you please clarify me this concept?
This wll make comparison under the same point of view.

Ok, Guillermo. Now I understand better your statement. Your are talking about throttle lag. We are talking about spool up time.
Here is how I do the spool up time measurement:
Throtlle at idle. Engine stabilized.
Throttle stick to full thrust= timer started
Engine reaching the max RPM= timer stopped
You are right, the throttle lag was improved with the latest ECU versions. I didn't make a specific throttle lag measurement on these engines but my spool up time measurement includes the throttle lag as you can see above.
OK
Thanks Oli
Now all of we are talking the same language.
Next time my P-80 is running, I will do this test and post results. Should be the same as yours
