With a spacer and the right prop you can get close to 80 gps if not over. read the thread about the drive spacers

Maybe one of the dealers or the factory can chime in here.......
I heard somewhere (Lonnie?) that the factory realized they are mounting the drive and motors too high in the Heat (average 19"s X dimension), and are lowering that to 18"s on the new boats. That should result in much better out of the box performance.
Congratulations on your purchase. The Heat with a 525 is a great, trouble free performance combination. I would try Bravo 1 props in the 26/28" pitch range, and a Hydromotive P5-X prop in the 26" range. Try to maximize your stock engine performance while you're still under warranty, and then there's the Whipple 3.3 !
Regards,
Steve

He has now bypassed us and contacted the factory directly to buy a boat to ship to Turkey.....ergo the above shipping company TURKON LTD He mentioned NOTHING to the factory that he has been working with us the dealer for the past week....now he went to the NORDIC forum and has continued his campaign there saying he was insulted on the GD forum and still needs info.

You knew very well your were working with a dealer.......we ship overseas and it makes zero difference if you purchase from a dealer or MFG to ship to Europe.......we spent way more than 5 minutes on your 3 calls to us......you had requested we price out a full 496 ho Heat package for you and you would call back for the numbers......and you also got pricing packages and info on Adrenaline boats from us well.....ONE QUESTION....did you tell the factory you had worked with a dealer???

We have no problem answering questions for potential client....BUT when they go around us to the factory after collecting all their data and say nothing to the factory about working with a dealer....well that is where I have the problem here.

if you speak with the factory you will understand i am paying 10 grand more then your price the issue is since there are no dealers and warranty back up in my country i can only buy a boat from the factory i stay in the us half o the year if i buy aboat i will definetly buy a boat from the dealer for tradein issues later on i do not understand why there is not much understanding from the dealer member of this site you dont only live to earn money sometimes it better you earn a friend come on thats enough
