I use somewhat similar settings. I have found for my engine prop setup (same
as yours) that 29" and 2450 RPM work well for a smooth running engine. I allow
the turbo's to operate up to but never over 1600 TIT, and use fuel to keep
them there. I see 20-21 gallons dependent upon the temperature.


I am somewhat surprised by that choice on your part.  Why not 32"MP and
17gph, LOP and run cooler at the same TAS?  Sheesh, that's 3-4 gph less.
That's an extra hour of fuel.

Why the 1600 TIT limit? As you know, it's 1650dF.
