Bravo I FS vs XS

[bware]

I heard the only difference between the FS and the XS is the FS has 4 PVS holes and the XS has 8. Is that true? Would there be any advantage to either for my application of a 175 ProXS 4-stroke on a Triton 189, besides the additional cost of plugs for the XS?

Same prop, Different venting options. Normally 4 strokes don't require any more than 4 pvs holes, Many 2 strokes need more than 4. Taller pitches and taller gears need more.

They say they're the same. I had an FS lab finished by FJ props and a box stock XS both 25" pitch, both did the same wot mph. However the XS was 10% faster in the mid range.......granted the FS was worked.........the plugs come with the prop in the box when you buy them.
