Had the boat out on Elsinore the other day for prop testing and to see how the boat performed with the Whipple Stage 3 Upgrade just installed. Wow...What a difference! The boat pops right up on plane now, accelerates hard, and runs real strong on the top end. Best number for the day was 113.2 mph with a Hering 5-blade 15.9" 33P 18 deg rake prop...and she was still pulling. Conditions were windy with 1-2 ft chop.

Thats awesome! Glad to hear it! Did you go with a torque tab?

Fuelish Pleasure

No, we decided to hold off on the torque tab until we could try a few more props. We didn't notice any torque steer during testing, but poor water conditions could have had something to do with that.

mikebrls

so how much power do you have now ?

Fuelish Pleasure

At max prop RPM of 5800, it should be making about 800 HP.

J.P.

Stage 3 already that's great,........don't blame you cuz waiting a full year for a warranty to expire is boring especially when you know the additional power is there,..and Teague Marine is just down the road.

NMBullet

I understand! With the right prop the torque steer might not be noticeable. What prop are you going to try next?
