I'ts Official! Rtech Fountain hits 100 MPH GPS
It has been strange waiting for the final results of our installation on a 35 Fountain with a pair of 502 MPI engines. We sent the boat out with 4 psi pulleys and Arizona Speed ECU, going 94 mph. Didn't hear from the owner for weeks. Then the boat came back and we put the 6 psi pulleys on and cranked the fuel pressure up to 50 psi. Didn't hear from the owner for a couple more weeks. Well, he has put 20 hours on the boat and has seen 100 mph on the GPS. I'm still waiting for my 100+ ride and a chance to take some more measurements of intake air temperature but the main thing is the customer is happy.
Original speed was 85 MPH with 502 MPIs upgraded to 500 HP with CMI headers and HP500EFI cam. The boat has XR drives with 2" shorter cases and 1.26 ratio. Labbed 30 Bravos spinning a little over 5000 RPM. We figure we are making 700 HP now.

The boat is a 96 with a single step. I'm not going to do SEMA, but I am going to PRI in December. Next boat show will be Miami.
