Default Subaru Diesel Engine Revisited

Has anyone done any serious work on an aircraft fit as yet? For example: PSRU or direct drive with torsional vibration damping, ECU re-mapping, remodelled air intake and manifold (possibly in carbon fibre), dry sump conversion, exhaust re routing, radiator / inter-cooler repositioning and reduction in size for greater airflow. I read that someone was looking at the Rans to fit the engine. boxeer.com has been writing in rotaryforum.com and would suggest some awakening if interest in this engine. I would be interested to know

Steve.

Hi. Yes we have the boxeer plane that is underconstruction. It based on Osprey GP-4 . All the modification stated above are being done. A kit engine+ecu is now availlable for 10k. It. Is a turn key solution it does not include the mods on the engine.

The complete firewall package will be for sale after heavy duty experimentation.
