K. Was expecting little more. Would get 72 with my 09 hpdi 250. Was expecting at least the same. Thanks

How new? Very possible it will improve once fully broken in. I have a 2008 Z21 with the same basic setup and I’ve maxed at 72. Different hull but I suspect I’m heavier. 70 on tournament day down here in the humid south is very doable with my setup.

Thats about right for that boat with a 250, if you want more you need to have Hydro Tec flash that motor to a 300, that is the main advantage to owning an SHO. You are definitely leaving some performance on the table if you don't do that.
