Talking Spray on a boat????? Crazy Idea!!!

I had this crazy thought


25 Baja and a 26 checkmate, both with 496 EFI 400 HP
both do about 70. and rev to about 5200


now add a 100 shot to them, and move the rev limiter, and let them rev to 5800-6200 80 mph easy.
anyone done anything like this?

heres the Baja, no pics online of the checkmate.

im not scared, i just dont know how or if it would work.

i would probably have to change the prop as well, with 100 more HP i bet it would spin.

how would i do it on the EFI boat? i know the motor only spins to like 5000 rpm.
i know a carb boat would be easy, but fuel injection?

I know a few people that do it. The only thing that sucks is if you want to spray a large shot and change props you have to give up mph NA.

You would be luckey to see 75 mph on 100 shot. It takes alot of power to see mph on boats. A 25 outlaw might say 70 on the speedo but a GPS would show about 65 at the most. But given it has some nice exaust and 100 shot 75 is possible. Get on ATI website and look at he mph ganes with the procharge setups available for boats and you dont gain much mph

I worked as the the fuel and nitrous guy at the drag boat races down here for a season. Those guys were fun to work with. There is nothing funner than some spray on a jet boat... I do miss my Jet boat..

you may want to look into a blower. you wont sacrafice any speed with the prop change that way and will always have the power. i have a checkmate and had a blower on it. is your CM jet drive?

Never heard of guys spraying boats before. Asside from the drag boats out here on Grass Lake in Chitown subs. Blowers yes. I recomend a Whipple or Kenne Bell for a boat due to the flat torque curve. I myself would like to get into this. Takes tons of $$$ though. I won't buy anything that does not do at least 70. The 496 is a nice motor. I am guessing it is 425 though if it is the HO. 375 for just MPI. I agree on the 75 from 70 for the 100 shot. Takes a lot to get 10mph. Ever look into a stern jack? They garauntee 10% top end.

I've had a nitrous boat. It was fun, but the "real" men on the lake make boost.

yhea, gps on the baja is 67-68 loaded. gps on the checkmate which is on a lake) was 70-71 loaded. checkmate is like 400 pounds lighter or something like that
i should probably just stick to spray on cars. lol hell, just about everything i have has spray. my sled and quad are next
