3500 is 3 lbs of boost, with the 4 blades.7 lbs at full throttle. The 34 5 blades are 5 lbs at 3500, and 6 at the stops.they are 2 inches higher and don't run much different.

if running more boost at the same rpm you would think it would burn more gas, but its covering more ground too....I guess the deference is in hulls,on my 30pt 4 blades i could ease up 4000 at 70mph and 0 on boost/vac gauge and 8.2psi max
.
maybe comparing bravos against #6 props would be diff?

Ive got a buddy w/42 cig w/575 its running around 3psi around 3800-4000.thats were they run it all the time,rideing with him just seems to me thats straining the motors running it hard like that, but a 42 is a heavy boat


sorry for ot

Interesting. On my light 30 Cigarette Mystique, 4800 is 0 boost, climbs to 7 lbs @ 5650. 4800 is 80 mph with labbed (Merc Racing) 37 4 blades. Hering 5 blades is almost 90 at 4800, zero boost. The 5 blades are much more efficient at cruise but have proven to be brutal on drive life.. Oh well, XR issues.. -Great thread btw

90mph at 0 boost and 4800rpm? Damn..How light is a mystique!?.. my boost starts to build at 3700 .. @ 4800 I`m at 5psi.

What a shame and waste of a BADASS boat. With so MANY side by side to choose from they pick this to convert.:blaster::blaster: Now there is only 4 left. So long FatBoy:(

Is this place the equilivant of west coast customs or Orange County choppers? Wonder what kind of other gay sh!t they do to boats?

ICDEDPPL 09-24-2015 11:37 PM

Yeah! I can`t believe they`re going to take that pile of ugly junk and redo it all to new, what a bunch of jerks! Making a boat usable and saleable.....the nerve of some people.:rolleyes:
