    Custom/Hybrid Kawi pump vs Yamaha pump in a custom hull....

    I prefer the Kawi type also . Pump design is easier to work with prop changes , 1 piece stator / wear ring section eliminates a place for a leak , and like the way the driveshaft goes straight through the bulkhead with no intermediate shaft to deal with.

    Super Jet For those that said 2 smokes were dead in 2011

    Yamaha has a 2011 superjet in the lineup . Now to see if kawi has an sxr this year or if it was just propaganda to boost sales .

    Best ride plate for a 08+ Superjet?

    Best way to eliminate chinewalk is give it more gas . Its the nature of the hull.

    Has this setup been run with a wet pipe ? Same cutting and welding as with the yamaha version ? If it works with a wetpipe I will be interested in trying one .

    Trinity Composites Matrix Pro Hull

    In the video , the strakes did not look as deep as the ones on the 08 SJ hull . How deep are they compared to 08 ? How do these carve on a bouy course with the right rideplate etc .? I like the looks of it for sure .

    Hooker pitches for strokers

    I tried a 12/18 -7mm hooker in my mag pump. It was a huge letdown. First it was cutback enough that the hub rubbed the pump. Finaly found a washer to put behind it and ran it only to find it slips like a mad. It was pitched for my setup and its not even close. Getting them on the phone is about...

    Kawidoo Freeride???

    951 would go nice in a 70lb trinity hull . All engine bolts changed to titanium , Tl flywheel setup . Biggest problem with these kawidoos seems to be noise control . Loud skis are not cool , and the less pissed off fishermen etc the less likely skis will be banned on your local lake .Ski needs...

    Battery drain to 75% in less than 48hrs

    No , the 7lb R6 battery is a Yuasa and is used on a non total loss ski. I dont know how long it will go with total loss .The Oddesy is the stock size battery that is 11 years old and I ran total loss with it trouble free.

    Battery drain to 75% in less than 48hrs

    Acid filled batteries dont like being drained and recharged. They just dont do as well. Sure you will have some that will go a few years , but more often than not they are good forn about 1 to 3 years in a jetski , and even then they are not nearly as good as when they were new. Car batteries...

    Battery drain to 75% in less than 48hrs

    Batteries that you have to add water to are obsolete. So many better options such as oddysey. Or order a battery for a yamaha yzf R6 Its an AGM battery that weighs around 7 lbs and is bullet proof. They can be discharged and recharged repeatedly without damaging them. I have an oddysey that...

    mag pump

    Mag pump is the way to go. TBM or R&D pump insert is better than nothing , but does not even come close to being as good as a mag pump. Its like comparing an aluminum prop to a stainless impros hooker. Ive run them all and know. If the mag pump is loading down your motor , its because you either...

    Hooker impeller question??

    Repitching impellers changes the clearance between blades and liner. The right way to re pitch includes welding and resizing if needed and impros does this . Also on a worn out setup , it is more likely that the gap is caused by blade wear and not liner.

    Who makes the best Battery

    Its more than 5 lbs. Regular odysey weighs 14lbs . Battery out of yamaha R6 weighs 6 1/2 and does well. YUASA YTZ7S weigh 4 1/2 not for total loss unless you can swap out every couple hours, but is 10 times better than anything from walmart . Have not tried the lithium with total loss, but...
