Anyone put a SC (Whipple or Procharger) on their PQ? Which boat and engine/s? What did it cost you (parts/install) and what gains did you see?

Thanks,
Dave

The PQ house has been a little empty lately Vype. As I lurk thru once in awhile I can hear the echoes of my mouse clicks....

Of course BillR is like the PQ junkyard dog, he'll be here soon nipping at my heels to chase me out......

LOL!

It has been unusally quiet in the land of PQ I agree. I'm not sure why but if it doesn't change we might loose our status as 2nd or 3rd most posts by forum...

Oh no, Dave just can't stand the fact that BillR's boat is faster!!



That should stir things up...

On the other hand, maybe I should shutup because they can both beat me!!

Okay...sounds like things are waking up over here...Hey Vype, I think the post count (unconfirmed) is due mostly to you and BillR...

Cig don't go there man. These guys are sensitive about all that... Makes for a grumpy happy hour on Friday's...

I have a PQ 260 SX with aPro-charged 454 Mag. Boat went 62.7 stock and 80.2 on GPS with blower. Only problem was that it chine walked like crazy until we got the prop sorted out and a nice set of Eddie Marine Billet Tabs. Also, if you do it, plan on spending some cash on a computer upgrade. The guys at Precision Marine in New Orleans did mine and no more fowling plugs and rough idle. Good Luck!

Default $$$$$$

If my memory serves, 7,500 for the whipples installed 4,000 for engine rebuild, freshen and proper parts, valves rockers ect... This was from Tyler Crocket, and if the engines were removed and delivered to his shop. This was the older style for 502 MPI's the newer for 500 EFI's are about 1,000 more.

Hitting mid 80's last year, I expect close to low 90's with drive and prop changes made in fall

OK - it's bantor time... LOL

Cig - Bill is definitely not faster even after 2 sets of labbed props with the latest being 30p Merc labbed. I on the other hand have stock everything including my 28p non labbed Bravo's and still hold the title... BTW, GPS tattletale tells all... I know he's seen mine but he has not provided his for review yet... hmmm. LOL!

BillR - I'll be waiting for your response...

To all - I just wanted to know about others experience with superchargers IN CASE I felt the need to hit 90 instead of 80.
