Hey Mark,
I didn't remember that you had a manifold pressure indicator. I ordered it this 
week. Where did you install the sensor pick up? I also don't remember you 
including the manifold pressure in any of the information that you have given 
altough I am certain it would be on the graphs that you have posted if I look. 
I still have not gotten around to flying with a laptop to record the EIS. The 
Dynon also records to down load but I have not bothered with that either. I 
tried to do a full throttle low altitude run yesterday but it was way to rough 
down low and I think that it is time to adjust the carb for summer time also 
because I couldn't get the  exhaust temps to settle down either.
   I landed yesterday with a total flight time of 478.1 hours which is exactly 
200 hours since the cam gear broke on the way to OSH 2 years ago. It also marks 
200 hours exactly on Dan's BTA 5th bearing. Does anyone else have that or more 
time on theirs. I would like to make a decent formal report to Dan very soon.

I'm no Revmaster expert, but I do have a manifold pressure gauge built into 
my EIS system.  The manifold gauge will almost never read higher than 
ambient pressure, so with a 30" limit, you'll be operating right around full 
scale deflection on the ground with the engine off,  and near full scale at 
full throttle at low altitude, and less at less throttle or high altitude. 
Ram air will probably not make enough difference for you to even see on the 
gauge, so that's probably not even a concern.  I'd go for a 30" personally, 
just for the increased resolution.  Now if it's a turbo, that's a different 
story, but you'd have fried that gauge already.  Let us know if you really 
do see much change when ram air is on or off, assuming you can control it, 
but it makes very little difference on mine...
