New Rotax 912is "Sport" Engine announced

Recommended Posts

The Rotax 912is engine is already being improved upon.  The new "sport" has better power & torque and even better fuel efficiency, due to a bigger airbox and new computer.  Existing owners get the upgrade free, but will pay labor for installation of the updated parts.

Does this mean that one of our fellow posters now has an obsolete plane like the rest of us mere mortals? 

 

Sorry, couldn't resist. :blush:

 

There may be an upgrade available but it is probably really expensive unless it's all bolt on.

Since part of the cat is out of the bag from the double secret society there is a little more. Rotax didn't want this out to the public until the Sun'n Fun announcement. There should be approx. 100 912is engines in the US by year end. All existing engines will get the new upgraded parts for free. It is just the computers and airbox. The upgrade takes about 4 hrs. You pay the labor parts are free. It adds significant better torque and power. The old parts must be sent back. 

 

Now you know what the secret was, but there may be more! :)  (MAYBE you'll get a little extra HP, just maybe)
