mystique question

[skmulligan]

New to the forum.

I may be interested in a mystique as soon as I sell a 340 Dancer.

Have owned a few performance boats but never a Cigarette.

Of the two mystiques listed on offshore only, which do you guys feel is the better deal and what's more important, power or stepped hull.

Remember I'm new to all of this so sorry for the silly questions.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

i would say let the $$ do the deciding. The 2001 without the step but WITH the 500EFI's has its pro's and cons?

but the 2002 WITH the step, but without the 500efi's has its own pro's and cons.

i would say they match up pretty equal, just see who is willing to deal better

what r the cons?

the t/s is a way better hull... i know i drove it

and ecu reflash and a set of header and u will be flying.... already does 82

I suppose that is one big question I have....

Does the t/s make that big of difference.

You can always upgrade motors but not a hull .?.?

Thanks for the input.

I'm way over my head here.

Get the T/S, they realy run well with moderate power. We've got one that runs 105!

The early non-step Mystiques porpused like crazy!

The T/S 30 496 boat does ALMOST 82...the 500EFI boat is a high 80's mph with the right driver.The TS is overall a much easier boat to run than the non-stepped hull(but the non-step is still a very nice/fun ride).

I have a video of a couple 00 Guns running with a Mystique. The Mystique was porposing badly. The porposing can be controlled with some tab and drive input, but will slow you down significantly.

pm could you link the video
