[NSRCA-discussion] YS170DZ inside info???

[Mike Hester]

Supposedly it is slightly stronger (about 2-300 rpm as mentioned) and 
smoother. The 160 is already really strong and smooth, especially with the 
NMP venturi. Say goodbye to the YS idle sledge hammer.

BUT I understand they have decided to rework the engine in some way. Why, I 
have no idea, my guess would be to compete with the new OS 200fi. I'm not 
sure it's necessary, I never get close to wide open with the 160, even with 
my new red brick (LOL) but ok.

As for when it will be available, your guess is as good as mine.

-Mike
