    Upgrade

    I have a 2003 VX225 3.1 OX66 and was wandering what options I have for getting more horse power? Less Oil usage? Better gas mileage? How much? Can you do this or do you have to get a new HPDI? I am a novice as you can see. Just wandering what options I have or do I just live with what I have.

    You'll have to go to HPDI to get better fuel economy

    The 3.1l is very good motor to modify and will fly easy to prop..... the only down side is it likes fuel you may See a slight gain in mileage modifying it due to its more efficient and less boat is in the water....the hpdi is a green motor and gets ex fuel mileage even when modified heavily....if I had a 3.1l I would modify it and if I was getting a new boat i would get the hpdi
