Did anyone catch the Rotorway demo of a new fuel injection vortex generating
atomizer called a Startube at OSH? They claim a 10% increase in horsepower,
ability to run lower octane fuels, engine needs less spark advance, smoother
running engine.

They were not happy when I pulled my camera out so I didn't push the issue.
But I did notice that the unit had a plug covering a port on it and the guy
did say it was there to tune a small chamber in the unit. I wonder if this
would be any use on a rotary?

Thw website www.startube.com is down right now. The guy said they were
giving away to much information and they are redoing the page.
