    Who is running a M prop on HPDI??

    I tried my old stock 25M today and i think it is better than the T1 prop, better hole shot, better acceleration, and more lift. Anyone else noticed this??

    The M series is lighter and thinner making it faster, but it is known for slinging blades on the higher hp motors... If you run your 225 with the m it will probably throw the blade. When, who knows, just keep the t-1 on board incase it does.

    Re: Who is running a M prop on HPDI?? (ChrisH)

    What is the difference between the M and the T?? I have a new HPDI 200 coming for my Ranger Reata. Which one of these props should I be getting???

    Is the T series the Vmax prop or the Pro Series? what is the name of it?

    Thanks

    The T series is the Vmax prop. Your Reata will perform better with an M (Pro) prop. The T props are better suited for high propshaft height.

    I ran this same prop for a year on my 521 with a 225 with never a problem so I will just run it and if it looses a blade ohh well.

The 225 I'm getting this week has a M on it. It will have a T or Tempest Plus on it ASAP.

    Exact oppisite for me. My T gets much better lift and its about 2.5-3mph faster than my M. Holeshot is the same but the T dosent cavitate as bad as the M did when cornering, must be because of the larger diameter?

    When a prop slings a blade, it is usually not just the prop that gets messed up. The T1 is larger dia prop. 15 1/8" I think. The new T1's are a little lighter seems like. (We have one from last year and one from this year.) The M is 14.5 dia. Smaller dia prop is less drag. Hence faster (given same design). The Larger dia prop are better for heavier boats, like the Reatta. Thing is the T1 and the M are not even close in blade design. It Really all depends on your rig.

    Re: Who is running a M prop on HPDI?? (ncz20)

    I usually run a 29T. I have a 25m and swapped it out the other day just to see what it would do. I never ran it over 4500 all day, pulled out of the water and yep it had cracked. Anyone need an anchor ?
