And possibly a better cooling system.

I like flying a friend's Europa. It is turboccharged (i.e. turbo
supercharged, not turbo normalized), and has thermostatically controlled
liquid cooling, and automatic turbo control. Additionally, the constant
speed prop is set by putting the selector in 'Take off', 'Climb',
'Cruise' (you can also switch it into a simple variable pitch prop, or
make it constantly variable, or feather it).

Cruise is simply a matter of putting the prop switch into the 'Cruise'
detent and setting the MP at your desired power setting. Mixture control
is automatic, too. That's the way to fly.

I've never seen that engine run particularly hot.
