Re: merc 525 efi more horsepower
When they get back from KW (after the 14th), I would call Leon at BTM marine aka Team Taboo. Their number is in the links section. I'm taking my boat down next week for some help too.

Re: merc 525 efi more horsepower
ran those traps... everyone told me... leave them stock --- and I did. Your resale will go into the toilet --- both short term and long term it'll be cheaper to sell the boat and buy one w/ the power you're looking for vs. trying to modify and/or sell a modified (non-stock) boat.

....best advise I received in regard to my old 525 Ciggie!
