I am wanting to set a plane up with a 222. I am not in need of every last drop of power. However. It would be good to not lose a ton in an effort to keep the noise down. My main goal is to have a nice and "pleasing on the ear" ( Not stock mufflers ) I was wondering if any of you have experience with this and would care to share?

Regards Ali

I use the 5 chamber MJM 350/80 Kanister on the Dle222. This canister are very quiet in combination with a Engel 31,5x16 prop.
With a 3 chamber MTW canister you can hear more the exhaust bang by low rpm, like a „Trabi“ car.

Thanks Gerd. Is this the Engle super silence prop? If so. I have used them in the past and really am impressed with how it works. I have one right now on my DA170 and the sound is great.

Regards the canister. Where can I find more info on this 5 chamber MJM?

Thank you for your fast response.

Hello Ali,

You can find the canister with mjm-daempfer.de and call James Metternich.
Note you can reduce the exhaust manifold as short as you can.
I have reduced it to 220 mm.
I think also the KS Canister from Krumscheid are equal silence but the manifold intake is not central.
