none that I know of... .I am running stock pump, R&D afterburner pump stuffer and 14/19 big hub (mag) prop. Works great. I am dying to try a Mag setup.

I just bought a ski that came with the 865ss and the 140 mag pump. I have to say it feels like it needs the 144. I'm not to sure why someone would spend the money for a mag and only get the 140 pump? Is there any gains to be had by running a smaller pump?

I allready have the 140 mag and am looking at getting the x scream set up , just looking to see any one else runs the same / prop size etc etc
That may be true but I'd still rather have a 140 mag over a 144 stock pump.

I have a 144 setback behind my SS865 and an 8 vane 140 standard Mag behind my wife's ported 760. The 140 is heavier and seems to create alot more internal pressure. The 144 flows a higher volume but the 140 has a higher water velocity. As long as you prop either correctly I don't see why they wouldn't work, it just depends on what you are after for performance.
My wife was very upset when she found out I bought a Mag for her ski. She loved her ski exactly how it was and hates when i change anything. She has only ridden it once since I installed it and even she noticed the difference. She said as soon as she hits the gas, the ski just gets up and goes, no more hesitation or lag. She said it was much easier to ride the surf since she the ski responded so much better. She is very happy with it now and glad I did it but I had to promise her I wouldn't change anything else without her permission. :biggrin:
Any idea what pitch you would need in the 140 to equal a 13/18 or a 14/19 in the 144? I have a 14/19 and a 14/23.5 for the 140 and would like to eventually get into a 13/18.

I went from a stock pump with a 9/15 hooker to a 140 mag with a 14/19 prop. For the record, a 13/18 was recommended to me but I got the deal on the 14/19 and havent' bothered to change yet. The bottom end had a slight but noticeable gain and mid to top end had an OMG gain. Nothing else was changed.

Thats a small prop for that motor.... My XS846 SS I ran a 144 Non S/B mag with a 14/19... Chris had the 827cc SS motor and went to a 15/20 with the lighter hull
Not sure when your going to install the Dasa, I will have my 850cc Thrust/Dasa at the end of March. Droppin it in my new Surf Freak (80 lb glass hull
Setup will be 850cc, Boyeson intake, Either Novi or FS 46's, Bpipe, 210 Comp, Epic, LW Flywheel. Going to run it with a stock 144, big hub 14/19.....
Will have the new Thrust pump once its released, but its gonna be a stock one at first

i have done the comparison back to back, and the 140 mag is way better than a stock 144 with large hub skat prop.

thanks Matt, but we can test it with Kevs 827, with either my 140mag or his 144 setback mag with choice of 13/17 or 14/19 , or even a stock pump
I was just looking to see if anyone was currently using this set up
anyways , aint you retired ????
