Yamaha 115hp power up
 
Hi everyone,
I have a Yamaha 115hp and would like to up the power output to 130hp
or even 140hp. The specs for these motors is all the same so it must
be timing and /or jets in carbies.

Has anyone done this and could you tell me how.

Thanks

I thought modifying outboard motors for more power for non-racing use is
now prohibited, at least as of some model year like 2000. Is that not
true?

.....and possibly heads and piston shape and compression ratio as well.

Prohibited? In the USof A??? (sounds unconstitutional to me)
BTW, I have the opposite situation. A 200hp Mariner that I'd like to
trade off some horsepower for better fuel consumption.

It's the EPA. For the Children. They can do anything you can't stop
them from doing. And it is only any modification that could affect
emissions or power output. :-)

I live on the other side of the world .. in Australia. I don't know of
any laws like that hear and the motor will still have all the signage
of a 115Hp.

Thanks everyone for the info. I will see what I can do to get boost
out of the little engine.
