We are now putting on a Raylar BCK 103 Kit
(www.raylarengine.com)
This will add another 100 HP
I will keep you informed about the results

What was the original top speed before the CMI's?

Maybe my gps reads slower.
(the impress your passengers guage reads 72 mph though)
I was dissapointed until I realized everyone is not as fast
as they say. I know alot of people claim their boat ran 68 or 70 but must hold back a couple hundred rpm whenever we run accross the lake.![Drink](/forums/images/smilies/drink.gif)

Raylar kit is on
with the bravo 3 drive and 28 `props boat is hitting rev limiter very quick at GPS 71 MPH @ 5150 RPM
Boat now behaves like a dragster and also sounds like one (the real good sound comes from the raylar kit - the CMI just add a little more sound)
I have never seen or driven a boat like this ,
time to plane less than half time
If you push the throttles down at 3000 - it takes just the blink of an eye to jump to 4500
extreme quick throttle response
With a bravo 1 the boat will run even faster , but the owner now prefers the bravo 3 setup
next we will reprogramm the ECU for a higher rev limiter to gain some more top end speed
By now owner is 120 % satisfied with his new raylar engine

my brother has a 25 with 496ho, best he could get was 64.7, then labbed the prop and got 66.8
it was so low on gas, he ran out on the way home and had to get a tow
