If I were you, I might consider SS four blade - your top end will stay about the same, but oh my gosh, the acceleration is outstanding. I'm currently running a 3-blade Viper SS, 19 pitch. Do what I did - stick with the same pitch only four blade. Out of curiosity, how old is your engine? I just heard something today kind of interesting - they changed the deflector pins in certain 2006 engines - don't know if the 90 was covered in the change. That could account for the increase in performance also. Deflector pins? What, please, are these, and what do they do? They are deflector pins and they deflect. Ahhhhhhh. Actually, it's my turn to look stupid. I meant to say diffuser pins. Sorry. Do they diffuse? |

Speaking of which, I'm sad that the latest BoatUS magazine didn't sing the praises of my Wenger Swiss Army Watch. Hell, it's spent more hours in the Chesapeake Bay than some boats I know of, and it's still ticking. Or purring, or whatever they do. I can't hear 'em anyway. |

If you knew anything about the Swiss Army watches, you'd know that the Victorinox version is superior. http://www.swissarmy.com/timepieces/...ry=timepieces& |
