Location: Cedarburg, Wisconsin | Yes, absolutely need to know what rpms you are running at WOT trimmed up! Without that info you are lost.
There are electronic gages available that give you the ability to tap into a wealth of info coming realtime from your motor. If you don't have one, it would be a good investment. I run two 4" gages with my E-TEC that you can set to show dozens of options, like rpms, speed, water pressure, temp, fuel consumption, throttle settings, trim, and many more.
If you are serious about inproving the performance that would be a good starting point.
Then you can try different props and motor heights to establish the very best performance. It takes time and effort. Everything interacts and only trying all the options will give you the results you are looking for. Once you get the rpm info we can suggest props to try. |
