bajabob, just ignore remarks like that. My Donzi 22 Classic ran 73-75 with the stock 496 HO. I repowered with a low hour HP525 EFI and Bravo XR and have hit 85.8 and I think I'll find a little more. Here is a vid of a quick run up over 80 on Lake Erie: (all gps speeds)(some gauges are out because the ECU wasn't flashed yet)

Not sure what your asking for but ? As Mahopac Marine stated My 08' 288 ran 70ish with the stock 496 HO 425hp . I increased the HP to around 625 and picked up 10mph . I am currently building another motor which is expected to be around 725hp and I am expecting another 5 mph which should get me close to 85ish . Hope that helps , Good luck

Mahopac is always doing things big in the NY always wanting to go faster and thinking outside the box which I think has pushed the business to what it is today. Look at the 288 with the 525 that thing is crazy fast! I have never felt power like that even in a car.

01-20-2012 06:57 PMI doubt very much anyone has tested the maximum limits of the design with extensions and shorties.
I'll do some checking and searching.....Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!
