OK, the 89mph was all that I ran with the boat in STOCK Pro Max form on the lake the same day it was switched to the Brucato setup, the next day I ran the boat with the SVS/PCU it ran with ME (not Randy) about 94mph. Now let me add, those numbers are with no height adjustments or any prop changes ( 31 4 blade Spinelli was the prop used) . With that being said, this is a fairly new boat to me & I just can't seem to drive it ANY FASTER (yet). With the Brucato system added I noticed a huge difference with holeshot & midrange (even with the huge 31 on it) performance, it seemed to run more like a 260 than a 225, also around a 5mph gain on top end. To Red Allison, NO the prop wasn't a foot below the pad, it fact I asked Randy (Mr. GPI) if we should raise the engine any more & he told me it was the same height as when he owned the boat. Red Allison thanks a bunch for helping me @ the ramp !! To me these weren't the ideal testing conditions, a fairly new boat, LOTS of boats & wake not to mention later in the day TONS of beer. Many thanks to Tony Brucato & GPI (Randy, Jay & Pete) for making this a really FUN time !! Bottom line for me..............when it comes down to testing boats OR drinking beer, the BEER ALWAYS wins :twisted: !! Now maybe Tony & Randy can add some of their thoughts. Scott
