Maybe an SVS. I personally would be hesitant to do any block mods cause I know how strong these motors can be if you get the fuel right and 145 lbs of compression. The Prostock class in DSRA runs stock 200's with a good fuel curve, 16 amp electrics, and 150 lbs of comp and they are very impressive. 100 mph in the 1/4 on 1400 lb boats

Send the ECU to sean a Rapair and tell him you want the ProMax Recurve :twisted evil

I know a recurve is cheaper, is the promax curve that much better, or does it just give you more RPMS, I am looking at that as being my next mod.
Either a recurve or ACU from Bructato.

Where is better to get it done, RAPAIR recurve havent' checked, Simon Recurve $350, or Brucato ACU $900?

BTW, not sure if mine is possible it is a 1995XRI which is most likely analog, need to check.

I have the same motor. Shaved the heads, put on a front half from a 225 Pro Max, and re-programmed the ECU.

Hmmmmmm pm Jeff Calbaugh (Hotprop here on the board, he's Glenn Reynolds' lead wrench and engine builder). He can wake that lil 200 up and have you showing your transom too ANY 225PM you come upon!! :twisted evil

Just noticed you say super mag, that is the same as the promax, so you already have the raised limiter. I want a raised limiter like yesterday

Do NOT use a Rapair unit. They are nothing but trouble and very slooow customer service just to get it back and still not work. Took 4 years of getting jerked around to finally get smart and make the change!
I switched to a Brucatto PCU and everything is rosey now.
