Just released by Cubcrafters for their UL model:
No particular information given about horsepower increase, my hunch 170-180hp takeoff power for 5 min, after that back to 139hp continuous power. This could be enough to get the RV-15 comfortably into the air. A much lighter, turbocharged fadec alternative to the Lyc engines. I know this needs a new cowling and engine mount, but it would be a great solution for hot&high and where avgas is not available or super expensive.
Food for thought…
