I think you are way off there, typical V8 car engine, with after market
performance carb are set up for
between 600 and 800cfm, you might be out by a factor of 1000, 87cfm would
seem a bit low though.

  Hi all,

  I was wondering if anyone has come across any Rotax 914 data that will
tell me the airflow into the engine for various power settings.  I have
looked on a few of the auto enthusiasts web sites and for the follow
parameters I get:

    0 centigrade
    5100 RPM
    30"

  I get 87,700 cfm

  Does that sound about right ?
