Greetings,
I'm shopping for an exhaust system for a 912UL in a Sonex Onex. I keep seeing the newer 912is exhaust 973-387. I read somewhere that it's got heavier tubing due to the higher EGTs compared to the carbed engines. As far as installation, would that exhaust fit a 912UL or ULS?
Does anyone know if the system Van's sells for their RV-12 is something they make, or is it the Rotax system? It looks very similar, but maybe not exactly the same. I do see Rotax part numbers on the mufflers in some pictures, so at least the muffler is probably off the shelf. I'm betting the whole system is.
I also keep seeing an exhaust system kit 973-676 that was prior to the 912is. I do have a TIG welder, and I'm not afraid to use it, though I am tired of using it after making the mount :-)
Despite the manual not recommending dual mufflers, the Toucan looks like it would be about as easy to fit in the cowling as any that I've seen.
Thanks,
Rusty
