Hi, I posted a question in the glow forum and was sent over her for more info. I have a 10 Shrike that needs a boost in performance. Currently running magnum 15. Flies good, flares good for landing, just too slow. It was suggested I pick up a 28 rear exhaust, but I know nothing about it and can't find much on the web. Anyhow, where can I get one, one much do they weigh with muffler/pipe, what muffler/pipe to use, what rpm with what prop (9x6, 8x?), is the pipe a maintanance nightmare, how much deniro, does the rear ex interfere with fuel tank setup, and physical dimensions. I plan to move the firewall rearward and have the prop moved back in relation to original. This plane is difficult to balance and I don't want to end up nose heavy and plowing in for a landing every time.
Thanks for the help, MikeB

Mike,


The MVVS .28 can be set up in rear-exhaust configuration and would spin an 8.5x6 (Bolly Clubman), or a 9x5 prop at very nice RPM.

For even more speed you can go to an 8x6 from APC, Graupner, or even the MA Scimitar.
