My exact findings too! I prefer how the boat felt when turning out too at WOT runs, and I didn't loose any speed. A win win situation as far as I'm concerned. I dock a whole lot more than I run WOT.

I think those 28's are too big. Get the rpm's up

Im looking at driveability. I thinking of 26 bravos for all around boating.( See shop shop - swap/trade) The EMI exhaust did raise up the rear about 1" above the water line. Im pleased with the updates. IMCO external will be next year.

Welcome to the family Glen. Don't run your motors hard while in silent choice mode. It restricts the exhaust to much. The back pressure is very hard on the motors. Only good for running slow. We all deal with the rattle. I hope I have mine fixed. Just put in two new motors and we redrilled the holes for the tails at lower angle so the pipes will exhaust below that pocket in the swim platform. Let you know how it works out this week.
