Mine did 83.5 with 525hp@5200 last year with 28 Quad IV Hydros. My motors just dyno'ed last week north of 600hp, and I'm also curious what prop adjustments I'll need to make. I'm running with no steps.
I'm guessing that you'll be good for 87-88mph with 625hp@5400. 28 or 29 labbed Hydros are worth trying. Fountains carry their bow well on their own, and the Hydro is a good stern lifting prop. This combo loosens up the whole boat out of the water, for good speed results. Again, I'm speaking from no-step experience.
Have fun! Sounds like you're going to have a totally different boat this year.
Cheers,
Brian

2005 35 Ex (Single Step)
Twin 525 EFI's
Bravo XR 1.5 ratio
32 Pitch Bravo I Props
90 MPH at 5150 RPM on Gps
13.5% slip factor with Bravo I Props
8% slip factor with Maximus Props
Just ordered 32 pitch labbed Maximus Props. Merc Racing says I will see 3-4 MPH gain on top end 7-10 MPH on cruise. Alot of dough ($1500 each) but if it works it will be worth every penny.
