    2008 200 vmax series 2 up to 250 hp

    Ive owned alot of bass boats but never tryed to increse power in them. i now have a 08 skeeter zx200 with a 200 v max series 2.
    The 200 has the same displacement and weight as a 300 hp.
    How can i make mine a 225+ ?
    I know its not legal or whatever but it seems a shame to have to have the same weight and not the power.
    The boat can easly handle more power and i can keep the 200 motor cover.

    Wayne can definately hook you up and you'll love the results. Oh, and BTW, the ZX200 will do wonders with 300ish HP on the back. Don't ask me how I know, I'll have to plee the 5th.

    Please. Do describe for us what said boat could possibly be capable of if it was to accidentally, temporarily, and unknowingly pump out a 100ish extra HP's........

    A phase II can be installed by just about any one. It is nothing special!! Head, reeds, and tuner.
    I would add the light weight fly wheel while you are at it.
    You can call Stacie at Ascension Marine in Gonzales. I am sure he will do it.
    You can do the heads your self.

    All I'll say is with a 28 TXP from Mark, it was mid 80's on the rev limiter, didn't get to run the 30 before we sold it. Oh yeah, I plea the 5th.
