No, the link is not working. I'd really like to see the video because I've never seen a 28 saber run. Youtube is pretty easy to upload.

They showed 415hp on the dyno, twins, but kind of runs out of hp at around 4300rpm. I bought all new merc 500hp accesories and put in a big oil system in case I wanted to upgrade down the road. It's pretty much a carbed version of merc's 502/415.

I hear ya...haha.

My buddies wife shot it on her phone. They got a 26 Sonic. I'll try and get some more footage this weekend in some better water.

Tell ya what Scott...every weekend I'll get some new footage and send it to you. What you can do is set you laptop on your passenger seat, put a fan up on your deck, and get someone to spray water down the side of your boat out of the hose. It'll be just like your there...

I had a pair of PPI seats I was going to put in but it just wouldn't fit without having to cut up the bulkhead and dash. Plus having to put in a tilt column for hydraulic steering. It was starting to add $ up. But your right it would be cool. I do like the electric drop outs though. Here is a pic of them. I ended up trading them for some paint work.
