I was waiting for your response Dave ....... :D

Re: Mhale00 & Raylar Kit
Dave...I will even pay for your airfare to LI so you can go back and scratch your head about all your mathematical equations that are not working on these waters around NY :drink:

Re: Mhale00 & Raylar Kit
NON step with 415pshp. Your are correct.

Re: Mhale00 & Raylar Kit
I'll have to ponder that offer :drool:
It would be much easier for Steve to jump on board for a quick spin beings he lives there and had run his stepped hull Heat there for three years. It's not only mathematical equations but the results of 25-30 other Heats and yours is in a league of it's own so to speak :eek: Maybe they should send that boat back to the factory and see what it is that makes it so different from every other Heat out there. If they could dupicate those numbers consistantly they would have themselves a Howard Bullet with ample room :drink: Now that would be a winner!! Not so much doubt; the bigger question is why? Dave :cool: (If Steve can't, maybe I will) |
Re: Mhale00 & Raylar Kit
AGREED.......Dave.......We were surprised at all the numbers the boats here are getting....I would love for the factory to explain the difference other than altitude and salt vs fresh water..... lol
We also just might get really really tight motors from Mercury purely by luck. I have heard that there are significant performance differences from different production runs of the same motor. The better ones coming off the line just after a fresh retooling at the factory. Who freakin' knows. |
Re: Mhale00 & Raylar Kit
I thought we were talking about my bad raylar experience. :eek: LMAO. The info is on the way.

Re: Mhale00 & Raylar Kit
At 80 MPH, I'm turning 5450 with a stock 30" Bravo 1, running an ITS and XR drive. This on glass smooth fresh water. My boat is an open bow, so I guess the slip could be higher because of this or maybe the salt water is a lot more dense?? I dunno....One thing I have discovered. I can turn about the same RPM whether the water is slick or choppy, but the speed can vary 4-5 MPH. So, it seems the HP is there but with really slick water the boat runs like the anchor is out. I've never experienced salt water with a nice chop in cool weather. My boat might run 100 under those conditions. Just more food for thought.

78 was a best ever for Toby and 74-76 was the norm with a labbed 30. Steve Z can confirm these numbers. I would be curious about rpm/prop set up on the 525EFI. I can tell you that a stock 28 Bravo at 5672rpm in optimum water is 81.1. The 525EFI rev limiter is at 5350 in the ECU so it would take a stock 30 on the rev limiter to duplicate an 80+ number. Anything is possible I suppose but I would need to see it for myself :frog: Guess I'm stubborn that way :cool: Good bench racing though :drink: Later, Dave |

YOU BET.....and I do want to know the results. A few clients have expressed interest in the kit and there is not much info from the real world users yet. Sorry about the pseudo hijack. |
