Blown HP525
I'm getting a HP525 with an XR drive. From the specs of the HP525, it should lend itself quite nicely to being blown. Any experiences out there?
I'm looking for another 100 hp.

Thanks. Dustin is a great guy. But I'm looking for someone who's blown the HP525 before I blow it, so to speak.

I highly doubt anybody has supercharged that motor yet, the stock ECU does not lend itself to much tinkering with the engine without mucho problemos. We've been working on it, it's certainly a good motor for a supercharger, the aluminum heads are a great benefit. You should be expecting a conservative 750hp, 800+lbs. of torque with 6lbs. of boost.
Thanks,
Dustin

I know a of fellow in Grand Rapids with a 38' 1999 Top Gun who was running 600 Hp @ 11k pounds and broke XR drives twice. He is now going to the pulsedrive. He likes to run in very rough water and got stranded halfway to Chicago. Weight of the unit is very important! What do the above mentioned boats weight?
