Chris,

This is great data. Can you clarify where the round hole on the nose goes? Would you use that (more simple) location again vs. a side NACA inlet as a blast tube inlet?

I assume you have the top mounted oil cooler?

With everything in place, I'm wondering if you could run some tests with the top 4" round vents blocked (one or both) to see if they are really needed.

Would you do that air dam again on the exhaust pipe exit? I assume you were hoping to make sure that hole wasn't presurizing the lower cowl.

And just to confirm, this is an A model cowl with the B vents. Right?

Thanks for all your testing. I've been wondering a number of these same issues as I still have to finish my cowl on my A model. I already have the turbo with liquid system installed and I own the b vents..
