Default Re: How much mph gain

All Depends Where You Get The 300rpm From. I Had Props Labbed Added 2-3 Hundred Rpm And Lost Speed. It Could Happen Like That. A Lab Job Could Also Give You Rpm And Speed . Could Go Either Way. If Your Just Adding Power And Getting 300 More Rpm Then About 3-4 Mph. Full Bottom Boats Need Bow Lift. Ever Try Spinning The Props In Instead Of Out. It Will Give You More Bowlift With Less Trim. Brett When At Mercury Did A Set For Me And I Was Very Happy. It Was For A Straight Bottom 28 And Twinn Pumped Up 454,s. Props Where Cut To Spin In. They where 25 mirage plus props. This Thing Would Carry The Nose Like A Hydrostream.
