Looks like your on the right track. I think if you can get 3psi to 5psi more water pressure and you'll be good. Glad to see the AN 16 Fittings helped.

I had Wilson blueprint my drives on my 32A with triples, picked up 1.5mph. The 1.5mph was consistent with different prop set up's. The boat also tracked better above 100mph.

David,
