I didn't gps it. But it's ALOT faster and handles better than with the 28 Bravo's. Even fully loaded. Was losing water pressure at 5200-5400 rpm...so i didn't get to really run it too hard. But man its really pulling hard when tje alarm goes off...can really feel it lifting and packing air...then it goes into guardian. Never runs hot tbo. My side pickups are only half blocked. Gonna block em all and run on tbe nose cone see what that does. My guess is itll top out bout 80 mph witj the 275 hp tune.
no porpoise...at all. Anywhere. Amazing lol

Update: water pressure issue resolved. Stb engine had bad impeller.
Runs great witj all side pickups blocked tho. But was actually not needed at 1/2 inch above bottom. So I'll prolly unplug some of em

Just figured I'd stop in and give an update...Been running the hill eagle 4 props couple times out this year. Great performance. Planes great. Acceleration is good....but I think I could do without the extra blade. The extra lift is giving a little porpoise where as the 3 blade eta had zero at any speed. Will get some good long wide open runs when all the trash in the lakes around here clears out. 🙄

Very cool!
I bet the white motors make it pop!
Amazing what you can do when you’re willing to paint your motors.
When I got my new 250’s for my Sonic in ‘99, they were gun metal gray.
I painted them white then striped them to match the Sonic colors.
The looked great!
BTW, the next yr those motors were white from the factory 😂
I remember calling on Deep Impact 15 yrs ago and they were painting, as a customer upgrade, the new Verado OBs.
First I had seen from a mfg and was a huge, visual improvement!
