Default Whippled 525 Efi - What Props ?

just finished my install of stage 1 whipples on my 525 EFI on the 32 Sunsation with Bravo XR's.

impossible to get her on a plane with 36 bravo I props....

any ideas on what the best solution would be ?

replacing drive's is currently not an option.

thanks.

If "36 Bravo 1's" is not a typo -- then I'd guess that's way too much prop, and you're bogging. I'm not an expert by any stretch -- but I'd think you'd be better off with 26's or 28's.
