2 squirts up!Yeah, I would have to switch my closing line, huh? wink Never mind then!
Wes, I took a ride in that Ultra with Harold a few months back. It definately jumps out of the hole fast. I think it would be a great addition to your already nice ride and it would solve your hole shot problem.
As for the fit, you may have to move your motor forward a bit to make room for the gearbox.
2 squirts up!

Stupid question, but curious. Is there two intakes or just one? What about weight? Reliability? I would guess that this setup could only be used on a bigger boat. One more thing, how much more power are you going to need to drive those things, your gas milage must be crappy?

It is one intake that can hold 2 pumps. Mounted in the center of boat just like a standard intake. Stock power works just fine. The more HP and torque you have the quicker and faster you will run. Fuel consumption is better than a single pump at all speeds and equal to or better than outdrive. Added weight aprox. 100 pounds not noticable in the boat. The performce from the second pump more than offsets the weight increase. The size of the boat does not matter 17' to 30' and beyond. Reliability is the same as a standard single pump. The hole shot is great and I have a boat that does a wheelieeee now !!!! More pics coming.

That has to be one of the coolest things that I have seen yet! Did you make the special intake and gear box or buy it?
Do you have any pictures of the intake from the bottom?

DaveVery very interesting!! What would something like this cost? I know that those damn Sea-Doo boats have two jets, but they have two motors, I think. The turning should be fun, let alone the monster roost that thing must put out. Sea-Doos Beware! Someone sure was thinking on this one. Unbelieveable gas mileage!
