    flywheel question

    I was considering an eric simon flywheel,I can see where the holeshot might be improved,so my question is will it do anything to loosen up top end and pick up a few more rpm? If so,how many? I have a triton tr196/200 optimax,it runs good ,but loses its punch with a load.

    Re: flywheel question (roll tide triton)

    I would not expect to see any substantial difference in top end with the flywheel alone.

    Although Eric offers some ECM limiter adjustments- you would need to reprop to see any gain there.
