Default JetCat Turbine Support Equipment

I'm on the "waiting list" for a P-160.

If I put a P-120 in my newest jet, can I just change out JUST the ECU and actual turbine when my P-160 arrives? Assume I use at least 6mm tubing thoughout the entire fuel system and use a slightly larger double walled tail pipe.

I just don't want to have to pull out the fuel pump, battery, fuel and propane valves, etc, once the P-160 arrives.

Thanks

Default Hi Nick

The ECU is obviously different. The pumps are also hand selected for performance. You might be able to get by with a standard pump but it might be marginal (high voltage requirement for the proper fuel volume)

BTW I run a standard pump on my BVM F-4 with P-160 but I should really swap it out!


Everything else is the same.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, Matt. That answers my question!
