Pat set the boat up for top end so getting out of the hole was a PITA, we did top out on the way back from the keys with three of us and a little under a 1/2 tank @ 98.4 mph and ran out of room before we went under the Miami bridge off plane. I then played with spacers I believe an 1-1/2" and topped out somewhere around 95-96 on the GPS. Much better and user friendly. DOCMANRICH37 good luck, should be a screamer, at least thats what she said

I've done alot of runs and that particluar sprint is still etched in my brain. Everything was running perfect and felt really hooked.

1000' more feet and you would have easily hit the century mark. That was a awesome day and a great poker run, one that Sandy and I always remembered. The first run was also good, remember that 1 person hang glider type of plane swooping down trying to play cat and mouse 1/2 the way home, and came within 20' or so. Oh ya, remember when on the first run back from the keys with the TMP boys we were running against a triple 900 41 or 47 Apache and we were just pulling away. Oh ya, remember on the way back when you were running real hard against that 38 Donzi with 575's, smokin it's doors, and I was in the back seat with the girls

trying to keep them company, never mind, it's best you don't know about that.

You're making that last part up. There's no way we could smoke one of those Donzis.

Re: Thank you

The boat ran excellent, it was just that we threw it in there at the end of the project. Pat was very accomadating and did a great job with the install and the boat ran awesome. It did take considerable amount of time to dial it in...the motors that is..between fuel issues, computer remapping etc it was a pain for Pat ...The boat did run 103 at Lake X...

Jeff is right about one thing...mine was faster...and I am talking about the boat..

.I meant that it was stock power for me and not that i regretted doing custom power, I am looking forward to my sunpad and my mercs. We are going with the ITS system though and I am anxious to see how that runs...
