Thanks Guys,

You're helping me out. Skyking you are right, don't know what I was thinking.

Arber you have an APU in mind? I was trying to piece something like an APU together, i.e. the 1.6 Ecotec TD combined with an EMRAX as the Gen. Not cheap but about the same as a good certified aircraft engine. At least the Ecotec can be had for ~ $5k from a wrecked cruise. Regarding its power curve, max torque is at 2k rpm and max HP is at 2.9k rpm, doesn't seem too bad? This gives it around ~135HP. Should be a useful level for an EMRAX 348.
