Default Check out the low volume on the 1350 Merc Turbos

I think the 36 is the perfect size for a lake cat(except for the Great Lakes, where the 55 would be better suited). That's a beautiful paint job too!

I agree, that particular 36 is probably my favorite looking boat at the moment.....

Turbos tend to act as mild mufflers to a certain degree. But what's lost in overall bark is nicely replaced with that wonderful whistle!

That's because it's a 350 out of a 1982 Crossfire Corvette with 1 big turbo on it. 1'350 right?

'I know those are Corvette motors. Those the most powerful motors Chevy ever made.'
