I guess thats good for 1400 hp? But I think some boats on 93 octane will end up running that fast.

Good job TMP, where are those motors now? Need a demo boat for them?

Yes, the engines are 1200 on 91 octane/ over 1400 w/ a pulley change and 100 octane. The computer aoutomatically compensates for the change. The boat did break a transmission during testing.
Gator, hows the new boat coming?

yes,

Our new boat should easily achieve those speeds on pump fuel.
Sean, Thanks for the heads up, we haven't seen it yet, but will look for it tomorrow.

Tmp,
The boat has run great. It ran 168 on pump gas and bumping the limiters. The attiude of the boat is amazing at those speeds. It should break 170

Gator,

Those are great #'s. How much power? What gear ratio? Who's transmissions are you running? We are heading to NorTech on Weds. to check the progress of the new boat.
