    wedges?

    I bought some 5 degree is that going to be too much ? I was thinking since Bullets don't like a bunch of positive trim they should be ok.

    I'm running 5 degree wedges, but I'm running mine flipped to help with hole shot (thicker part of wedge to the top), still plenty of trim. Agree, Bullets don't require a bunch of positive trim if there is enough HP.

    The 5 degree wedges for launch was a big improvement on my 20' xdc. That little extra tuck under really helped get my boat on plane a lot faster, very noticeable difference.
