The salesman stated similar comments about upgrades down the road. He did say a new set of headers from a company like CMI would be the first upgrade he would consider but only after the 1 year warranty expires. I missed a good opportunity to purchase a low hour used 525EFI. Hence my search and education continues. Thank you for your reply.

Comes with all the nice accessories and hardware. For the price it is hard to beat. Later down the road the power upgrade options are easy and endless.

I put one in my 22 classic ,put headers on 28 pitch 4 blade 79 mph. Gps

Are you in salt water? I would go with a low hour 525 all day long. not much more $ and better resale. I like EFI systems.
