I was told by Shibby that the rev limiter kicks in at 7650 on the 155 4-TEC engines. Impros said that I should be at or just above 7500 at WOT.

Cool,thank's dude.Did you change anything to get anymore top end speed out of your boat.

[spd5535]

Ya, I switched out my impellers and added a custom air intake. I will find out the results tmorrow when I hit the water.

[buddydoo]

Let me know on the results.

I was out on the lake yesterday and was at the same rpm. Speed was 46-48 mph with the wind blowing pretty good.

I went with the Solas Concord 11/19. Much better mid range and decent hole shot. Mot much improvement on the top end but I lost about 200 RPM's by switching. I'm turning 7150 on the port-side and 6850 on the starboard-side. I'm sending them into Impros in the next few weeks to get them both dialed in at 7500-7550. Should get me a couple of MPH on the top end and better hole shot.

Hey spd5535, why is it that both our Utopias run less rpm on the starboard side engine? When I am at WOT, I can hardly keep the boat straight as it is pulling so hard to the starboard side. Engine RPM's are at 7100 Starboard and 7400 Portside. Back off the trottle just a little, and she straightens out and seems to drive better. Both engines at 7500 from the start. I have tried to adjust the throttle cables but to no avail. Any advise?
