hp = torque (lb-ft) * rpm / 5252

I don't see FM-300 anywhere in that formula...

I have a bendix RSA 5AD1 servo for my IO540, dyno tested at 310. Whats the
difference from it and the FM-300?

Hi Pat ...

10 Horse Power is the up-side.... What's the down side of the FM-300...

Best... Steve

With an IO-540K, I would suggest going w/ the FM-300
flow controller from Airflow Performance. The FM-300
is designed for 250hp-450HP where the FM200 is
designed for 150HP-300HP. That way you're covered if
you ever boost your HP over the stock 300.

I have a IO-540K with 10:1 pistons and 340HP. On the
dyno, the FM-300 yielded 10 additional HP over the
FM-200.

Hey Steve,

You're right, there's no free lunch, you're going to
burn more fuel w/ the FM-300. So unless you throttle
back to get the same performance as you were getting
w/ the FM-200, which is the pilot's option, that
hamburger is now going to cost closer to $103.33
(assuming an increase from 300HP to 310HP)...

Higher compression may be considered an exception to
the no free lunch rule. Of course someone is going to
point out that higher compression generates more
heat...but if you already have ample cooling it's a
free lunch in my book...just not the physics book...
