The good thing is my price tag was a LOT lower than yours. I've thought about the intercooler and a smaller pulley, but as you saw adding height to my engine is not an option unless I build a new hatch. Don't really want to go that route, so I'll put some hours on this set up and then decide if I want to go to something bigger.
As far as fuel bill goes, they should be within a few GPH of each other. So we'll see who's out on the river more. Hopefully, we'll be seein a lot of each other.

:D

Yea, for the difference you can just leave your boat idleing during the week when your gone and still come out ahead on $$!!

But if no one ever bought a new boat, there wouldn't be any used ones!!!!

Man I hope wer're seeing a lot of each other! That 70's on saturday made me itchy!! Wanted to go down to the river and just stare at it!
