Cherokee 140 - LASAR vs. Powerflow vs. Laminar Speed Kit
Local fella put the Lasar system on his Warrior 3 years back... Says he
can't really tell the difference... He flys 300 hours a year... Says
he doesn't feel it was necessarily a waste of money but if/when he gets
another plane he won't install it a second time... Keep your mags
overhauled every 500 hours and you will be fine...
Forget the powerflow muffler unless the current exhaust is shot... To
make more power requires more fuel flow, period! Given that a few %
increase in power means almost no change in cruise speed you are
wasting fuel...
Gap seals and fairings can be worthwhile and if you are determined to
spend, this is where I would spend it......
