There is a company that, well, 450 hp with a supercharger but you probably don't want that much oomph.

They claim it will make 600 plus also and the 459 is severely defined. But then again ur nuts putting it on bass boat!

Get ready. You will spend about 1000$ on tuning then that much on props and tweaking.

I was in Tennessee fishing about three weeks ago and there was a guy in an Allison that had a Yamaha SHO on it. I don't know what he had done to the Yamaha but that thing sounded awesome. It was definitely not stock. It was early morning with completely calm water and he made several passes and was hauling.

On a couple of passes he was shooting a stream of water up quite a ways in the air on one side. Water was coming out right around the motor. Anyone know what does that?

Two years ago Simon was doing the flashing for Hydo-tec

From what I have read and learned after talking to some people, especially Hydro Tec and Steves custom props, leaving it at stock (6,200rpm) or going up to no more than (6,400rpm) is best. Then, it is most likely that to get the most out of it you will need a 26 - 27 pitched prop instead of the 25. Both to make sure you stay away from over revving, and to gain a little more on top end.

Anyone have any experience with these settings and what the outcome was on the boat?

The difference is that in cars there is not a rule that limits the horsepower. If you fish tournaments and they have a rule stating that you cannot exceed the USCG rating on your boat and you have your ECU modified to make it a 300 HP engine then you are breaking the rules. I do know several people that have had their boards modified and it does make them a 300HP engine.

Because only a hand full of people break 80mph. It's harder than you think. I've seen plenty of capable boat that will never break it.

Again, what's so big about breaking 80?

Never won a tournament going 80. Just saying.

Besides, I'm pretty sure that will null your warranty on the motor.

Solid red, it was a beautiful boat but sounded even better.
