For those who were not envolved in the discussion before the JP, Nitro Z6 w/115 Opti, prev hole shot empty about 4-5 seconds and top end 47 mph. I had a 5 1/2 inch manual JP installed and put in the water today. Same distance, which is only a few hundred yards since our lake is only that long, mph is about the same and the hole shot is a little slower. Water pressure is holding at the same as it was prior to JP and when the motor is adjusted up high I get a little chine. I moved it down a little and it goes away. Here is the kicker, I have to throttle back at any position because the rpm's are too high. I am sure that is a good problem to have since I am guessing I need to change to pitch on the prop. Right now I have a Laser II 20 P. Any suggestions? The dealer has a Laser II 24 P he will loan me, is that too much of a jump?
