Default PIREP on New EMag 200 (6 cyl)?

I am on the list for delivery around July this year for the new P-200 to install on my O-540. I know that there have been folks flying with them as Beta testers. Now that they are taking firm orders and going into production, can one of the Beta testers relate their experience with them. Interested in what reduction in Fuel Flow is being seen, smoothness, etc.

Thanks -- TJ

I'd think that ratioing the widespread experience of the 4 banger models to the six would be a safe bet. The fours get 1 GPH better on the same power, so I'm thinking the 540 is going to better that by a factor of 1.5
