Rich,

The tests were made on a test stand with a propeller load. HP was = calculated from load cell torque measurements and RPM. The elevation = here in Laramie, WY is 7200 ft which limits the NA MAP to 23". T= he MAX RPM for the NA Renesis of 5300 at WOT was not shown on the chart . 5600 RPM and MAP of 30" = for the TC Renesis was the limit due to inabil= ity to keep the mixture from going lean. This was a result of a = combination of a partially blocked fuel filter and the limited capacity of = the stock 1986 RX7 fuel pump, both of which have now been rectifie= d.

Still studying the chart

What was the reason for stopping the testing on there renesis both NA&= nbsp;and turbo AT 5600rpm?

It's my understanding that the renesis is a higher revving engin= e than the standard 13B with it's lighter rotors etc.

What was the limiting factor? Were these Dyno tests?
