Re: Tempest 25
What are you thinking? B&B? Ain't it true that a B&B will raise your R's 2-300 RPM's.If so wouldn't I need to add some cup to compansate? I am at 5900 now.The main thing I liked about the 25 Tempest was the hole shot. My wife didn't like it because she said she likes the way the Plus held the front up longer. The Tempest just popped us up on top like nothin.
Do you think removeing the plugs on the 26 Plus would help the hole shot? The 25 seemed to turn more RPM's during the hole shot.

Re: Tempest 25
Now we are getting into custom tunning which is part of the B&B, some companys charge $225.00 and up for this, I do not, it's part of the B&B, you tell me what you need by feeling out the prop question form on my site, I'll take care of the rest.
Yes removing or replacing the plugs with the next larger size will aid the holeshot, thats something you will have too play with yourself. They come in small, medium and large, normally about $2.00 per plug.

Re: Tempest 25
Will do!
By the way do you think I would benefit from a 4 bladed prop? Would it help my chine?
Do you take trades?

Re: Tempest 25
I don't know exactly right now because I have moved it sense I checked last. I think it's around 2 3/4 .If I go higher then I lose H20. I still don't know about pluging the top 4 because with it at the height I'm at now the torque steer is rough. the higher I go the harder it gets.I'm not sure if I have the TM or not. It has upper and lower H20 intakes and I know a standard Optimax prop shaft is smaller. I think it's the Verado lower unit.

Re: Tempest 25
Work the Tempest if you want to stay as fast as you can.
Sorry, don't have anything to trade at the present, this economy has slowed me down so much that I have sold all I have.

Re: Tempest 25
your siggy pic looks like a std tm lower with upper and lower intakes do you have a hydraulic plate just for chits an giggles you can (believe it or not) duct tape the top 2 or 3 intake holes closed. 2 wraps completely around the lower will hold for a trial run.
