Re: Flying without air cleaner.
I use a K+N air filter - I don't recall the model. The ones that I tried prior to that reduced the top end by several hundred rpm. Just calculate the required airflow at max rpm for your engine. See

Interested how many fly with a screen. And, did it help or hurt performance, speed, cooling,

OIL. we would like it to be 190 or 185. That’s what the old eng was.

It seems that your secrets may be your heating problem, just a thought. You also don't say what your climb out temps are or temp of the day is.

Re: buzzer for the canopy/nose gear/throttle warning system
Bruce,
It seems that pin 23 is an auxiliary audio input. You can’t just connect a switch to this however. You will need a device to emit a tone to your 220 through this pin. Others on this list will

Hmmmm Dave,
It is important to accept the fact that once you change some parameter, you will get a different outcome all else equal.
