Steve,
Do you have any issues with the motors stalling when shifting in and out of gear. When I played around with the flywheels from DBR we were doing some testing but I did not like the fact the motors stalled from time to time while trying to dock.
Are your aluminum or just cut with dampner removed?
I have seen the dyno run with the Hydra tec tuner on the 250xs and it did work pretty good. They have not tested it with the 300xs. DBR says they did not see any gains with the tuner nor did Adam who did a ton of testing on a single engine talon over on scream and fly. Also if you look at the HP curve the motors really fall off over 6150 rpm. Do you know who sells the taylor tuners?
Thanks

I saw the boat at TNT. Also did have some six blade round ear Herrings on it as well. I have a set of 15 1/2" + 29" round ear/thru-hub Herrings 22 degree rake that I run for my everyday ocean set up. Boat runs a solid 105mph and accellerates like a rocket. It blows right through hop.

It is a converted race boat that was a one off build. It is a wide body, cut down deck and the tunnel has been reworked.

DR,
just curious, what the speed range is when hop occurs?
