I looked at the config files on the 737 and saw that the min throttle setting was =-0.25. Is that what I have to alter in order to increase reverse thrust? Question

Resetting min throttle fig. works. I will say however that for realism, don't set it any higher than -0.40. I did, GOOD reverse but not realistic. reset to -.315, that's enough to back away from the gate with ease. I also did the same with the 777. I upped the max thrust as well on the 777, 90,000 versus 84,000 pounds. At altitude the 777 seems to struggle at cruising book figures. I'm going to try it out later. The prototype engines for the 777 were conservativly tested to 105,000 pounds thrust each, and subsequently has been run to 115,000 pounds with no difficulty. Most of the Brittish 777s use the tri-spool Rolls-Trent engines that typically run 95,000 lbs. -110,000 lbs for engine out emerg.
