In a couple of weeks Powersport plans to offer their exhaust as a kit.
This is the system that is running on the two RV8's. Ray indicated they
are measuring 81db and has a sound like a quiet turbine. They have over
80 hours on each aircraft with no sign destruction. The system uses
machined flanges (no welds) and some inconel parts. The muffler is
located in the cowl and is heat shielded with stainless. I have spoken
with them a couple of times this week about the kit and a set of flanges
to support the Renesis. I have offered to send them an exhaust gasket to
use as a template to develop a Renesis flange set. I also ask them to
determine what the minimum first production run would be and what they
would cost. Ray said to expect the kit information to be on their web
site in a couple of weeks.
