Thomas, I like the looks of those numbers!

I must say, that is reflective of what I would have expected.

I need to hurry up and get this thing in the air!

Happy with my G3i

I installed your G3i system on my O-320 160hp powered RV-4 2 years ago. I got a 4 kt top speed increase at 8,000 ft, esier starting, smoother operation and a better climb rate too. The biggest improvement is in fuel savings. Because of my poor fuel distribution at 75% I was burning 9.2 to 9.4 gph. My engine starts a slight roughness at peak egt, so I run at 100 degrees on the rich side. My fuel flow at 75% is now running at 7.9 to 8.1 gph. With fuel prices averaging $5.00 it has paid for itself in the past 2 years. I enjoy the increased range too.
