A word of warning to all builders who are considering fitting the Rotax 914 -
"good choice, well presented, join the club". However, if you complete your
instrument panel before you take delivery of your engine, be careful on what
equipment you fit in the panel above the central tunnel. The turbocharge
control unit and the wastegate servo both fit behind the panel in the area
above the tunnel. I had to reposition and rewire my altitude encoder.
Hi,
Does one box go above the tunnel - on the starboard side - and the other box on
the firewall behind the panel? Right now, I have space on the top of the tunnel
and plan to mount the other box on the firewall where I have space for it.
I put the IK2000 engine monitor on the bottom of the stack, which only goes
about
2 inches back. That allows room for this turbo gizmo on the top of the tunnel.
Thanks,
Dave Anderson
