It depends...

What kind of airspeed and rpms does everyone see with fp and 180hp?

Good link from Gil above. My "RVX" numbers are included in his thread in my post.
When you ask about RPM/Speed numbers in an RV, altitude is a big factor in what you actually see.

I pitch my props to allow 2800 at Sea Level so I can attain "Rated Power" (2700) at 8500 and above. Your mileage may vary...
What numbers RU seeing at Sea Level, 5K and 8.5K and what prop do you have?

*RVX is a one of a kind RV: RV6 fuselage mated to RV4 wings and tail.
