You can't just cut it out. You would need to make a recess/do some glass work so the hood liner and breather tube's can do their job. Can the flame arrestor be heated/molded down?
Or Just run a/m arrestors like we all do and make sure to run a coupler cover or make a cover out of turf for the...
Pull the pump and see. Leave the wear ring in the ski if you want to preserve alignment. But if your splines are stripped chances are you're gonna wanna slide the motor forward and realign the pump anyways.
Yeah sometime I'll try it. But for now I'm just probably gonna rip it the rest of the season as is. Truthfully I'm happy with the power as it sits. You don't see comp boats with wet pfps, but I've seen wet 898s do a dozen combos though.
But maybe i uhhh just can't leave well enough alone and...
Honestly man I don't know what to think. Zack says to shoot for 170 deg on the chamber temp like it's a one size fits all tune. But judging by my height, I don't think I should expect any more out of a pump gas 900. So might just stick to my 120deg. Also interesting, 9/15 actual measurement is...
@wiikstromm you're probably onto something with pipe temp. I'm sure there's a correlation of pump load to ideal pipe temperature. My ski seems to run best so far with a 60 jet in the mani, at about 120 degrees. Have tried 170, 200 and 120 feels the best so far. Haven't tried any lower. My theory...
I can't get enough of this thing. Been out six days in a row and I am beyond happy with how this thing rides. My sources said it would recover much better than the rip, feel more buoyant and spin much better and that all has proved to be true. I've been struggling hard with setup wake spins...
Sorry @wax for the thread derail!!
Wwik, this thread has a lot more detailed talk about dynos including why engine builders in the ski world don't bother.

With freestyle skis dyno numbers don't mean squat unfortunately. You could have something that makes 200 hp on the dyno and sucks to ride. It has to make power in the right place, and Carbs, ignition/timing, exhaust, pump and tuning all play a massive part in how it runs.. If a ski isn't tuned...
