Just giving this thread an update. I gained 7-8 mph on GPS. Boat runs a solid 74 mph loaded and 7mph with a light load. I'm extremely happy with the results. Power gains were very impressive.
BTW that is with a stock 26 pitch bravo prop. I'm sure if I got it labbed I'd see 2-3 more mph.

This has been a hot topic, I have a Caliber 1 custom 28 Thunder Mid Cabin Open Bow.
I have the 502 HO MAG 430 HP.
Still has the cats in it.
I would like to see some numbers after someone has done the cat delete, and tune.
Versus headers and tuning.
Thanks group!
