Oh its just a short video at LOTO 2011 of Romers 388 idling at the docks at LOTO. It was the weekend he ran 191mph radar, 198 GPS, sweet boat, for sure!
I'll stop by the shop and say HI next time I'm in Havi !! |

Chad, Louie's has 1100hp Eddie Youngs that Eddie said he is turning up to 1200hp after testing. So you are saying this 388 has 1700hp to 1900HP?
If so that is sick! Are there any pics of that Skater anywhereor is it new? Chad |
I make Vern's a regular stop when I'm in Havasu, I have to tell everyone the first time I wandered in and talked to Vern he was super nice and spend over an hour of his valuable time shooting the breeze with me and gave me some leads when I was selling a pair of speedy drives. Great guy and great reputation!! IMHO.

We have played with a few blower motors, the trick to getting a big surge at idle is to lean the idle circuits down. I f you fatten them up they will idle as smooth as any other motor, blower cams are usually are not that big.
Never had anyone ask me to dial out that blower surge:evilb: Love the sound of blower surge!! |

You see my number a few posts before, text me and I will tell u all u want to know about that boat, I don't want to sound like some punk claiming to know it all, but I know the owners wouldn't want it spread all over the Internet. I have all the pics u would want. Just text me and I'll text u pics. U coming to Desert Storm this year?
Chad I will have to look a the posts. I don't have your cell to text you. And thanks for the offer. I want to go to LOTO this year for sure. Will depend on work for sure. I have tried to get Gus to tell me what his Sterlings really dynoed at on his SLW but you know thats a guarded secret. LOL |

Thanks Chad, I will, for sure!
Here's Romer's old 388, this sound never gets old, right? Predators in the background in this video, maybe you were there? A similar setup to the blue 388, right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WZIVa1x2rs |

Yep thats me in the background in the black shorts on the dock. that was 2010:lolhit:
Very cool! I wish that video was longer though, as soon as Romer fired up the 2nd engine, the video stopped. Bummer that it didn't continue. I'm gonna try to take some video this year at DS, of some of the Skaters or MTIs launching. I love the sound of them at the ramp! |
Wow, that is amazing sounding.
Beautiful Skater. That blower surge sounds a little Sorcerer'esk???? |
