The boat is a 1998 25 outlaw.
Ok thanks, i have just purchased a hydro add on kit in the summer i could always up grade it to full hydro if that was the case. Also the motor is already out of the boat.
The thing with the procharger i just really dont like the way they look. Is the m-3 better than the 250 blower from the blower shop?
I am up for what ever is the best way to go.

I don't know which one is better. The M-3 will more than likely make more power. The problem with Prochargers is that they don't make much power at lower rpm's unless you spin them really fast. If you do that they make a bunch of boost up at higher rpm's and that can limit what rpm you are willing to go to. I make really good power now with my m-3 but it took turning the blower faster and now I can't go past 5500 without making over 10 psi of boost. A whipple evens out at a point and does not keep on building. The 250 is a whole different story.

ZXXX and Bryon Rose both have Donzi single engine ZXs and are right there at the 100 mph mark. Both have more than enough power to blow through 100 mph. It is just a matter of getting the seat time to get the boat to handle there. They both have step hulls though. I have a 25 zx with an 850 hp 502 and I hope to be right there at 100 mph when I get a day good enough to run the boat!!
My boat has a pad bottom but no steps.

I have considered going with the 3 inch ext. I just really haven't heard a lot on the performance side of what they do, so if you could elaborate on what the advantage to having one is that would be great. THANKS
A 100mph in a 24 that would be flying to say the least.
