Iv just bought 250xb with a 1.75 Sporty. I know that on my boat it will do nothing but hurt me. Champion 202
So im needing to find a good Torquemaster with low water pickups.
Better to sell and then buy or just swap with someone?
Guess im needing a value on each and what would be best for me.
Thanks.

Really would need to know the CONDITION of that Sporty (first).
You can likely work out a swap-deal, or sell yours for enough to purchase another used one.
Another option would be to have your components swapped into a bare Torquemaster case (probably not as cost-effective, but you would know EXACTLY what the condition of everything was).

The sporty is a desired lower in the right circle's.So a straight up swap will be no problem at all
Yeah, swapping should be no problem my mech said he would build me one so we could trade. Just didnt know if i could sell then purchase one and put a little cash in my pocket.

As Don said depending on the condition of your sporty you could sell if pretty quick and buy a torque and have some money for gas. I would not trade even unless the one you have has or has had a problem (welded) and you can get an almost new torque.
Is that sporty a newer one with the fatshaft or the original that came with the XB ? I have a new style fatshaft Torquemaster on my 2004 250 XS with the factory low water pickups and the top 4 holes on each side plugged with pipeplugs that I would trade with . It is in great shape ...
