to say msd is extremley unreliable is not always the case depending on application,and in your application the thunderbolt iv is more than adequate.

I had the same boat, same engine and installed the MSD with soft touch rev limiter. The boat gained 11 MPH and I had to go up 2 prop sizes......OK maybe not that much. Truthfully, I didn't notice any performance difference but it was nice having the rev limiter in there if it was needed. I did not experience any failures with the product though. To sum it up, it was a waste a money, stick with stock.[ATTACH=CONFIG]508642[/ATTACH]
