fastest 288
 

whats the fastest 288 mcob anyone heard of? how fast with a 700 merc set up any thoughts ? thanks just new guy asking.

Re: fastest 288
 

There has never been any Sunsation built with a 700 merc set up since they are so new, and Merc is still working out the bugs. The first one will likely be an F4. I doubt you are going to see many 288 orders wanting to pay the upcharge for a 700 and NXR drive.

up till now what kind of #s are they running with how much hp ?any idea thanks in advance

Re: fastest 288
 

The fastest I've seen on the boards was Kanookster at 90 mph. He has/had a 509 pro charged, I think.

Re: fastest 288
 

Now she runs about 82 with less boost. :D 509 6psi...and other stuff....
I heard someone out there is running 94 with a whipple but hes not on the forums.
As far as stock a 525 in a 2005+ hull with run close to 80 in perfect conditions but mid 70's consistant.

Re: fastest 288
 

so what do you guys think the merc 700 would run ? is yore 509 sc motor in a stepp hull ? se ya charlie, thanks again

Re: fastest 288
 

Its a 2002, no step. The 700 may be too much power to offer directly from the factory, thats a lot of power for that hull it it can get squirrly real easy. I gotta think mid 80's all day though.

Re: fastest 288
 

I have seen plenty of guys running in the low to mid 80's with blower set ups.

Re: fastest 288
 

what kind of hp are they getting with there blower motors ? any idea?

Re: fastest 288
 

The ones I have seen have ranged from procharger set ups on early 496's and whippled 502's to mild 540 with 671 roots blower.
