Oops....that was dicontinued for 2002.

Troutly,
I think you're right. He actually started looking at the 575 Merc package, but the Volvo 600/DPX was quite a bit less money.

Kentz I own a 380 Avenger with 500hp EFI's, running 30inch lab finished props. It runs 82 mph even on the GPS! We have 2 kills of 575 SCI's of a 382 fast tech here in Cincinnati, just ask Nick of Team Formula who hangs out in Four Seasons Marina, how the "BLONDES PREFERRED" sucked him up :D :D :D

Wildman1 - yes we know each other, I'm two spots away from you (34 PQ). I didn't realize that the factory 38 had the new merc integrated whatchmacallit (stand-off box), it did look slick though!

:D

Kentz, yea I seen them in person. PQ38 factory Poker Run boat was here at the Cincinnati Poker Run last weekend in July. That boat ran 81.6 on the GPS, it was a sweet looking setup. We took on a 355 Sonic with 575's and was able to keep even with him but couldn't get around him. We kept running away at the Lake Cumberland Poker Run of a 34PQ with 502's. We played with him all the way from Burnside to Conley Bottoms. ;) :D :D

Hey now, us cincy PQ guy's got to stick together, don't make me get those whipples on :D :D

If the Sonic was purple, its the 386 w/575's, its loaded with flat screen tv. air, genset.

Would you believe my friends 18ft donzi classic runs 95 mph?
mine(18ft classic351w) runs 53.4 @5000 rpm GOS but my prop SUCKS(16p) plus I have no trim.need a 24p
cant wait for next season :D

Yeah........the good old days................

Re: 382 Formula Fastech - How Fast?
 

My 2000 382 500 EFIs with 1/2 tank of gas and 4 people ran 72 and change GPS this weekend. Anyone had experience with superchargers on the 382?

Re: 382 Formula Fastech - How Fast?
 

Probably not stock 500 HP's :D

Re: 382 Formula Fastech - How Fast?
 

Boy this post started way back! This past weekend, my 2004 382 poker run edition with 575's, four people, full tank of gas, full water, extension boxes, flat lake, I hit 76 GPS. The boat is capable of getting into the low 80's with a light load and good lake conditions.
