Yup minus, gonna go down watch the video with the LW pilots talking about it, will see if I can find out if it's MW50.

>It had a 25.3 imperial gallon increase in internal fuel capacity thru the introduction of a small aux tank in the rear fuselage.

The MW50 was contained in a 25.3 gallon cylinderical tank located behind the pilot.

Hi Mandoble,

>Henning, so, with petrol injection and MW50 the engine can achieve the same maximum boost pressure without inmediate damage, right?

I don't think so. It's a similar system employing similar physics, but MW50 is a better anti-detonant than fuel, so it should have been possible to run even higher boost pressures with MW50 than with the fuel spray system.

>May it be used with GM-1 at the same time to counteract the reheating effects of the GM-1 usage?

I'd say it's power production that heats the engine :-) But MW50 and GM-1 could be used simultaneously for the best effect, but as far as I know the Focke-Wulf Ta 152H was the only plane ever equipped to do so.

Regards,
