Bob,
Ooooooh! So THAT'S what a Sukuki sounds like!! I thought it was symphony music at first. he he
Actually, I'm just kidding. I had my GEO engine completely finished and running a long time back. But, a couple of years ago, I did a little back tracking and decided to add the turbo and a couple of other power mods. I'm about 99.9% done with the turbo and mods, and within a couple of days of being able to fire it up again. All I need to do is put the fuel tanks back in (that were functional), and add some oil and coolant. and replace the wiring harness.
Before I go too far, after running the motor, I have to install my panel and gauges, so that I can tune in the turbo.
On the airplane progress front, I just finished hooking up my newly adjusted main wings.
With the wings & tailfeathers done, my next project is to finish the brake lines and some odd & ends interior projects. Then final installation of all my Lexan pieces (which are all fabbed and ready). The airplane portion of my build is getting VERY close to being finished.
One thing I'm especially curious to find out is how quiet my engine's exhaust system is. As many of you know, a turbo greatly reduces an engine's noise level. Plus, I also have a glass pack type muffler just past the turbo. I'm willing to bet that my engine/turbo/exhaust could be one of the quietest Kolbs running. It won't be long now before I'll know. We'll see........
Thanks, Bob
