I have seen new cmi from the factory leak like you wouldn't belive. I have 540s in a 35 cafe that I just bought when I did the pressure test on the cmi it looked like a sprinkler thnks for the info

I can't believe those thing were leaking so bad. You are right I hear nothing but bad stories on CMI's. Scary thing is the Tiger I bought has them as well. I guess I will be taking them off and pressure testing. Can they be fixed? Email me a pic of the motors in the boat ([email protected]) and I will post the pic here for you. 82mph impressive wait til you get the props dailed in, I guess it is time for some 28's.

Frank if you need yours pressue tested and fix we'll help you out. We've done about everyones in our area. My buddy has been running a set of Stainless Marine on his motor for 10 years and they're great!!

Vic, The Sonic boys will not be happy about your new boat.

Any information on the performance of the stainless marine exhaust vs. the CMI headers ??? any lack of H.P. ???
How much do they cost a set?

Hey frank, the sonic boys need to up grade to more power lol was on the phone Monday. And ssm said they have done tests against headers with little to no diff in my power range little meaning 15 or less,for you the diff is less something about blower motors and scavanging to me there product seems the best way to go,the 24 superboat has been the only one with no exhaust problems in our marina
