Why would you think starting in gear would help??

Yea, I wouldn't do any of that..... as far as N2O goes, how are you going to prop your boat? The time that you are pushing the button or the time you're not. Either way your going to be propped wrong.

There are bravos handling big power all over the place. No need to reinvent the wheel.

800 rpm idle shifting is just fine, low teens and up can be a little hard on it
