RW 162 engine RPM
#1
Just wondering if anyone has experience with running the RW 162 engine above the 4250 for extended time,

I am looking for what would happen IF the engine was run at say 5000rpm, continuously would it make more power, would it explode, would it last?

In this idea I am not using the FADEC system I am using the TBI system which I have proven at the regular 4250 rpm, and my outside scoop cooling system.

But just thinking outside the box.... what if a gearbox was designed with an output at 520rpm but the input around the 5000 would the engine be OK?
