Just wondering if anyone has recently purchased the Viking 90 for a 701? Is it still recommended? And, did the turbo version of the 90 get developed? My 701 is just pre-final matched holes, so I’m concerned that the baby turbo 140 is too much engine plus I won’t be doing any stol competition.

Yes, shipped one out recently :). We have the whole kit for it.
Thanks Jan for replying. I think I’ve watched all of your videos, and was sold on how the 90 compares to the 912. I recently met you at fun n sun and you were very excited about the 140 701 installation, so I was wondering if the 90 would be phased out. I understand more power is good, but I don’t think I’ll ever do any stol competitions. I’m about a year away from needing the installation and will keep the 90 in mind. Thanks again, Jeff
