Yes he is, and he know just a little about fast boats [ Sunsations & Apache's] .

This Sea Ray is pretty cool, & a real sleeper.

In keeping with the spirit of this beauty, I know is sounds stupid but we once had a customer that honestly thought a SS braid hose kit on a pair of 454/420's gave him more power over stock - yes they are out there - LOL

i went with the braided hose kit too, i pick up 11 mph, but i also speed waxed the hull that weekend so not sure how much mile per hour i pick up off the hoses vs the speed wax...rm

The turbos were actually a kit. There was a formula on craigslist that had the same turbo setup on twin chevys. I guess the turbos just sit in place of risers on the log manifolds. Pretty slick.
