    Z18 nitro w 175 pro xs

    I have a 2018 z18 with a 175 proxs 2 stroke. Running a 24 fury. I have moved the jackplate 2" in each direction from the original set up. I even measured off of another set up.I can not get over 56mph and 5000rpm. Any suggestions?

    Hotfoot?

    Possibly not allowing WOT.

    Wide open throttle
    Sometimes if the are not installed correctly it won't actually be getting max throttle at the engine.

    Be mindful of your water pressure when drastically moving the motor up. 12 psi is as low as you want to be at WOT.
