Looks like it would be tight in the old school x2.
I want too know how it is vs the wetpipe and if it can be made in carbon for a good price.

Bah! The weather turned crappy so we didnt ride. Unless it gets better then the next ride will be New Years day.
The diameter is pretty fat, but could me squeezed if a carbon version were made so it would clear in a vintage X2 hull if needed.

the only thing i don't like about the jap bottom mod is that you have to foam it in place and it wraps over the outer edge of the boat. i have a set of toms here that are going on to kamikaze's new boat and they are top notch. they come pre-foamed and molded to fit the stock hull as well as fit inside of the chines for a flush fit.
he will also be getting toms front X2 sponsons that i have r&d'd my self after having ridden the t-2/crabbies before that. they are by far the best x2 specific sponson.
i can't wait to try kantz's new ride when i am finished w/ it.

George glad you got the parts porno mags! I bet you are one worn out SOB about now LOL I just posted at PWCT asking if you got em!
What did Hiro charge you for the longer steering neck? I think I need one, tho I was out railing (two laps at a time
) on the mod boat today and being real low helps me carry corner speed. I have thought about throwing the stock steering on that SE hood and seeing how that works.
My whole intention of going out today was to test the MR chamber, but it wasnt to be, at least not the way I wanted it. I got it on the water and chased buoys with it, just getting a feel for the tuning, and my steering cable broke! I maybe got 6-7 laps at best...
So back on the trailer it went.
A couple observations on my short ride is that it had really good mid range pull, but chasing buoys it wasnt coming out of the hole very well. Of course I wasnt able to do any high speed runs to check rpms, but it would have been a good day, it was basically flat with some light wind rippling.
I was however very cold
I started with the exact jetting that I was using with the FPP SXR chamber. I am gonna try some different low speed jets and some pop off settings and see if that changes the low end. Scottie said it could be the impeller pitch.
I may also try this chamber on the mod boat because it has water injection, and being such a short pipe, maybe thats what it will need to slow the wave down enough to get the bottom end to come alive?
Thoughts anyone?

Hey Jon, Hiro has to get back to me about my 2nd order,that is the 1 with the freestyle neck on it, when he does i will let you know how much it is, do you still want to swap hoods?? and is the carbon hood the same as the stock hood, as far as handlebar mount height... let me know thanks...........

George, yes definitely want to swap hoods. I almost talked myself out of it then I snapped back to reality that I was never going to race Mod again and I want another Spec boat. If you want to do it soon we can do the shipping route. I measured and best that I can tell the SE hood, where the rearward bolts attach the steering to the hood, is about 1 inch or less lower than the stock hood.
Hey Jon, post a pic of the hood when you get a chance,i will trade you whenever you want, thanks George
