Charlie,
The systems on the Renesis turbo installation are working properly on the test stand. Now the primary goal is to accumulate time on the stand to demonstrate reliability. The challenge is to cool sea level power with 10000 ft density altitude air using
a package appropriate to the airframe. What was learned in this regard with respect to oil cooling has been incorporated into the plane with the NA engine installation. The great improvement in oil cooling was well demonstrated with the recent XC trip.
