Have been running the one rotor on p-port for a while. Aiming for 115hp per rotor on 12A housings at 7500RPM(be happy with 100hp in the end). These estimates should give 150hp for 13B housings, more likely 130, making 260 for a 13B. I know this is worse than other p-port proponents predict, but this is what I am working toward. If more power (over stock) is the issue, p-port is the solution, also simplicity. I have not found any real negatives, for air craft use, in it.

Sounds tempting, Richard. There was a big discussion about the throttle control with PP. What is the best way to control it?
I'm working on a heat shield on my new muffled exhaust. The other night at full throttle, it was spitting a 3' long flame like a jet.
Scarry. For some reason my EGT went to 1800+ and the mixture bar disappeared from the display? Richened the mixture and it came back.
Looks like I had a severe lean situation?
