If you own an SR22, Continental Motors wants your business. Well, it wants more of it anyway, so it is in the process of developing an STC to put a factory-turbocharged Continental engine in existing normally aspirated and turbocharged Cirrus SR22s.
Re-Turbocharged
Key Takeaways:
- Continental Motors is developing an STC to install its factory-turbocharged TSIO-550-G engine into existing Cirrus SR22s (both normally aspirated and aftermarket-turbocharged models).
- This aftermarket offering aims to capture business from owners seeking turbo power or engine overhauls, driven by a desire to increase sales amidst a downturn in new aircraft purchases.
- The Continental factory engine promises improved performance, cooler and smoother operation, a lighter design, and future unleaded fuel compatibility, contrasting with the existing Tornado Alley aftermarket turbo system.
