I originally did not want to spend the money and time to dyno but glad I did now. I did weld AFR gauges in tail pipes so should know if anything changes when we get them into the boat.
42 - 43 lbs fuel pressure, I was running a aeromotive fuel pump, bypass regulator with -8 lines.. not the stock cool fuel.....02 sensors are essential for tunning ....my peak hp was around 5700 rpm........be there when its dyno'd it will be cool to experience it, as long they stay together...

f-2 did you have throttle blades changed and intake throat opened up? 5700 is singing pretty fast restrictive intake and 540ci . Tyler figured my peak would be around 5400rpm. The main thing is that that they stay together!

Little update. The fuel pressure compensation was left turned on in computers so could not adjust fuel pressure to make a full pull. Over nighting computers back to Tyler to get turned off and will try again hopefully end of the week....

About what I thought. You added 7% in cubic inches.
Overall gain of about 10% in hp.

Like I have heard over and over again mercury intake is out of air at 600 plus hp but I wanted it all mercury and am satisfied with outcome. If where dyno’ed with dry headers and no accessories like most shops would have been 20plus HP more. The torque curve is strong and should run campairable to 600sci and being naturally aspirated which is easier on motors in long run. Now will see how they push my 42 executioner. It ran 80 most days seen 84 once perfect conditions with 525s so real test is coming....

Probably a 2-4 mph gain.
