Before and mostly after shots. Somethings now look a tit bit different

Your doing better than me! I only managed 77mph at 8900 with my old rxt and simular mods.

My brother in law, 1tommygunner1927 has his 08 TX running 82-83mph, so it can be done. The 2 things I see with your setup is the injectors and impeller pitch. I suggest you get rid of the 60# injectors as they are maxed out duty cycle at high rpm. You need either the VT1100 or Injector Dynamics 1000cc to run 8800 rpm or so and the tune to match. Use your 83mm nozzle with a SFR pitched 12.5/21 or send to Duke for approximately the same pitch mod and you'll see much improved speed.

Emmmmm..

My 07 rxt went 87mph on 17psi with a big 4 blade prop.

Its been slowed down to 84mph with 3 blade prop, bent and welded veins shaved. It accelerates like only 1 other ski I have been on. Its pitched to run @ 8800 rpm.

Another ski in Puerto Rico is @ 90mph + with more boost and similar turbo. Same year hull.

Can't use the top speed here, but I know I out accelerate my stock rxp like its idling lol

[imp0ster]

We're talking SC'd skis you turbo fart.

I ran 9K with 80lb Bosch short injectors form a vette and ID spacers. I need more prop but I was cavitating a bit so I'm sure RPMs will be a shit bit lower once I put it back together. I maxed the 50s about 8400-8500

Are you saying swap to a 3 blade prop? Is there any downfall to it?

[Turbo Retro]

Your title doesn't specify turbo or supercharged does it??
U want to know how to get there, I am telling you how I got there. Pretty sure your hull has 60kg more weight than the 07 rxt.

I don't think you could do it unless you are pulling some major rpm's with a supercharger.

No 3 blade prop loses speed. I intend on fitting lucky 13 pump cone so I can maybe wind up more boost and accelerate even harder with less cavitation

I have stripped everything out that doesn't need to be there. Factory tubing, cut the seat brace, no vts, factory steering gone. I should be a whopping 10 to 20lbs lighter

[Turbo Retro]

I have vts, stereo and dual batteries. Also learning key runs @ 40mph when my kids ride it. We go camping with the rxt and the damn thing uses less fuel than the stock rxp on long runs.

Not sure where 07 hull is lighter than previous year hulls

[imp0ster]

the 08 tx is 60lbs lighter loaded with all its options. When you cut the hull for pissers and though hulls and vents you see how thick it is. Simply not needed but it was their first go on this platform.

Yeah my ski is a rec ski and I use it for everything. unfortunately I ride around Jims clients and Gus and I'm the slomo amongst them. At the end of the day even if I only get 81.5 or 82 out of her I'll still love it because I built it and there's not another like it.

BTW everyone. I FINALLY SOLD A SET OF FUCKING INJECTORS!!!!

Jason from Rapidcams bought my ID1000s lol

[Turbo Retro]

Without vts, not sure where you will be. All I know, Seadoo should have made these ski's turbo from day 1.
I had issues running a c kit. Maintenance was a pita. Trying not to mid rxp, but turbo is only way to go

[1tommygunner1927]

Your ski will be faster in Fresh Water than salt water! So, it should already be an 80+ mph ski!

[imp0ster]

Yes I run about 1mph faster in lake tarpon than I do in the salt. Unfortunately 79 was in lake tarpon lol. But I had pump shoe problems so who knows. It might already be a 80mph ski

[1tommygunner1927]

Your ski needs a wedge.......
