Question 358 with props turning in instead of out

I have a 358 and I'm considering turning the props in instead of out. Does anyone out there know or have first hand experience with the props turning out versus turning in and how the speed and handling changes with the rotation changes?

Viper7,

A friend has an '05 and tried this. I think he gained a little on the top end but not much. Handling around the dock was very difficult.

I experienced the same as above. Poor handling at the dock for 1 or 2 on top.
