Im thinking the same. My Gladiator which is bare bones in race trim only hits 89-90mph with the stock 500efi's

But GPS can make mistakes i have no idea when that speed came up.

my 87 cafe runs 50mph on GPS @3600RPM w/496HOs ... I'm feeling pretty good about myself
although top end is still around 70mph...@4800(have some adjustments to make so i can get full throttle out of it...
so i guess that's where the step bottom really shines...getting more air under the boat at higher speeds certainly helps with top end speeds...

My 2001 ran best of 83 on freshwater w/500EFI's. I saw no improvement when using 92 octane. I also switched to 30" labbed bravos and did not pick up any top speed but accleration was much better.
