Very Nice! A 3MPH increase is very good for a Baja, or should I say any conventional Deep Vee hull. Your motor needs to run at 4800 zRPM at WOT so you have arrived. Congrats!

I don't want to throw a fly in the ointment but, you picked up 2.4 mph and 100 rpm with two adjustments. Exhaust and what ever prop work was done.

My point is, do one change or upgrade at a time. It is difficult to determine what worked and what didn't do much.

I'm surprised the exhaust didn't give you more rpm on its own.

You can actually run those motors right to the 4950 limiter without anything but performance gains.

I added the dmp exhaust and went from a 23p non lab finished mercury mirage+ to a 25p lab finished mirage.
