I spoken to Eggenfellner and plan to go see the engine in the next 60
days - not sure I will learn much but I always have to see stuff.
He tells me that a turbo normalized version in on the way as well.
I tend to agree Honda quality has always been pretty good.
I understand that Bowman in Canada has been flying behind a CAM100 but I
can get hold of him to ask. As i understand his solution was to have
two radiators.
Anyway once i have seen it I will report back.
