The boat is a 25 outlaw 7.4 mpi 310 hp Bravo 1 1.50 ratio. running a 21p mirage plus (Wot 4600-4700)
I am adding a procharger 5psi bringing the crankshaft hp from 340 to 500... I was told by procharger that the kit will not add any rpms I dont no if thats true or not, however I am looking find a good place to start prop wise. A procharger tech said that you would typicaly go up 4 sizes after adding a procharger and another company said No way go up two sizes. So at this point I have no idea what to do, should I wait until I install the procharger and run the 21p and see what I get for rpm then adjust or should I just start with a bigger prop? Does anyone have any ideas as to what I should run?
Thanks,
Derek

I was told similar things about the procharger people so I figured I would to turn to the oso members for advice. Surely someone out there has the similar set up.

When they say it will not add RPM, they are referring to the operating RPM range. If you do not change the prop when you supercharge it, the engine will undoubtedly increase the RPM it reaches.
