Apart from the single fuel start of the sx is there any mechanical difference beween se sx ?
does the sx produce more thrust?
many thanks

the SX has a machined compressor wheel.

The SX motors are normally slightly up on thrust over a 160SE.

I was told no. Too much new stuff in the P-160SX.

You have the new SX wheel installed on the SE and turn up the rpm to 125k which will make more power.

at the same RPM the 160SX and the Titan SE put out the same thrust, the SX just goes to 125K RPM whereas the Titan SE is limited to 123K RPM.

They are limited to 123K on the Titan, So they reprogram the motor to be P-160SE to get to 125K. Bob will only do this if you have the new Machined Turbine wheel.

Its not the turbine wheel that is the weak link-it is the compressor. The SX has a machined compressor that is stronger and able to take the extra RPMs.

I understand the SX can be turned up to 39 pounds of thrust.

RE: P160 sx vs P160 se jet cat
I beleive it can be turned up to 38lbs, but only Jetcat can do that, we can reduce the thrust, and back up to normal rated power, but we can not increase the rpm. Joe C!!

I really wish JetCat would give out the code. I would not mind sending the engine for maintenance more often than 25h

You can select 126 K Rpm in the limit menu for the 160sx.
The egt hardly didnt go up at all.
Dont no how much thrust it will produce at 126K though.
