Default Wanted: Boat for magazine article - Supercharger install

Family & Performance Boating is interested in doing an installation article on the Rtech Supersystem. Preferred boat would have a single HP500 carb engine, but twins aren't out of the question. If you're interested, I can provide more details here, or you can call me.

1999 Formula 382 Fastech poker run edition, no cabin 2-HP500's , XR drives, with trailer $75,000. Found it for sale. It would make a great company boat! Could run 100MPH + with your system.

Tom,
My friend and I have the perfect boat/boats for you.
Mine is a 1995 28' Sunsation with the 500HP (currently out of the boat for a rebuild) My friend has a 1999 32' Sunsation w/twin 500HP's about 200hrs. How about those?

Now we're talking! Both of these boats are fast to begin with and great candidates. Just for the simplicity of doing one installation (and on a fresh engine) I would prefer the single. Can you send me some pictures of the engine compartment so we can discuss? What prop are you running and do you have external steering?

Hard On:

Website address is rtechperformance.com but it's not up and running yet. Send me a PM or call (416) 709-8714 for more details.

Your comment is not as off the wall as you might think. After seeing all the big poker run power in Key West, we feel the need to supersize our package so we have something available for that market. We're thinking about 1200 HP from a larger Supercooler, big Z-trim blower and Holley EFI with the largest fuel injectors available.

Displacement should be 600+ CID to keep boost and RPM requirements down to a reasonable level. What are the specs on your engines and drives?
