<font face="georgia,palatino" color="#0000cc" size="4">james, i have a question for you,i have a 90hp tohatsu,an it used to run with a half tank of fuel an all my bass stuff,44 mph.with me in it.now that i have stopped bass fishing an removed almost all my bass bait.it will probably run alittle faster,i dont know,but here is the question,sincebassERT an i hooked up together ,i would say in january,he has been in some fine rides,some real fast,an some really smooth boats.when the water is smooth my old boat rides really well,but not to fast,i was wondering ,if money was not object,what could you do to my tohatsu,an i mean really make it BAD,an what horse power are we talking about, an once again, if money was no object,i just keep thinking that pat would be more satisfied if he had to pull his hat an glasses off an hold on to them while in my boat.emoLaugh could we maybe get up to 65 mph,emoUSA </font>
 
If money was no object then get you a MERCURY and set the water on fire aint that wright James
 
Or go with a OMC and blow by the Merc. so fast it puts the fire out....... emoDance . Mercury makes my Johnson emoHungry .....HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!
 
I have a article where a guy got 237.4 horsepower and 300 foot lbs of torque out of one and was running 109.8 GPS on a 17' bullet. So they can be made to be a beast and with a unlimited budget it may be more. JMO.....

I like both. I have 1 omc block and 9 mercury blocks.</p>
 
<font face="georgia,palatino" color="#0000cc" size="4">109mph on a glass boat.wow.that means that IF money was no object,i could put all my bass gear back in the flatbottom an still make her scream,an probably make pat scream too...lol...i figure if i could get her up to around 65 or 70 he would so happy,he has not been the same since he road in that big ole ranger ,down in ala,an i dont know how many times he brings up the smooth ride of one G 3 over at the chic.thanks for the info james...emoUSA </font>
 
Best I can tell, the amount of machine worked needed to build like the in the article woud be around 2k. TAssuming yours is ok and would only need the modifications done and parts to put it back together. Won't know untill yours is tore down. Later........
 
Ya know, it is amazing how much a 300HP shot of NOS can add to a 90HP tahatsu....... LOL!!!!!!!!!

Hope most have figured out this was to pull ya chain........

How should that make me feel if your modified OMC out runs one of modified Mercury's since I have built both of them??</p>

</p>

Wanna test try it against my beast??? We ran 65 GPS at around 1/2 throttle and it is not broken in or set upyet!!!!!LOL!!!!! Only thing I have found is OMC's are hard to get out of the intake after being emoHungry!!!! NRG was so impressed when he saw it run, he has bought 2 mercs for me to build him one. Nothing makes you feel better than converting a OMC man to a Merc....emoDance </p>

</p>

All joking aside, I am curious how much increase this will make going from the sick 200 to a strong 250+ on your boat will do. Did you get the pictures of the port work?????</p>

I remember years ago Bruce Day put nitros on his 150 Johnson.
It set the water on fire then made a big oil slick!
