Default wtf happened? tried a 28p bravo one

I am running a set of bravo one's 26p's labbed by throttle up with no cup. turning them at 5600 rpms.

Tried bone stock 28's and could only turn 4600 rpms. slip numbers were better with the stock, but why only 4600???

2000 36' baja outlaw, twin hp500's

I had a similiar problem with the 28's. Maybe they're a larger diameter?

I was testing 28's and could only turn 4600, tried 24's went to 5700, then 26's to 5300.

Each application is different. 28 B1's have their own personality too.

Your current props may be able to be adjusted furhter to improve your performance. Where do you need to get to? And where did you start at?

You're turning 26p's at 5600 rpm?
Are your HP500's stock? If so, the rev limiter should have held you at 5350rpm.

What's your feeling on cutting the diffuser rings off?
