    A Tempest 27 P is a good place to start.

    I had the exact same boat except I had a 200XRI. My Bullet was a little lighter layup than standard. I had a 26 Predator. That prop would really scream the only problem was that it lost its hearing. That was the knock on those props. So I ended up trying a 27 Tempest just as 1holeshot suggested. I didnt think that would work at all. Well I was wrong and so were several other people. That thing worked great on my rig.

    I have a 21xdc with a 225 EFI, ran a predator and one of the ears developed a crack. Got another one and slung an ear after a couple of years. They would really get that boat going but I was always nervous running it. Run a tempest now and haven't had any problems.
