I don't think my ski is preforming as well as it should be. Is there anybody in Ohio that would like to ride my ski and tell me what they think about it. Preferably some1 who has a lot of experience. I'm free just about any weekend. And often travel to Erie to ride " east harbor". Also ride other lakes Delaware lake and alum Creek.

There's nothing wrong with it I just don't think its performing as well as it should. It rides fine I'm very inexperienced and have nothing but my old sn to compare it to and would like some others opinion.

Ski is a Wdk rev carbon. motor is a 4mm Php 898. Running PFP novi 48's and a 155 pump. The ski starts and runs great. I know the prop isn't quit rite. I was expecting to have my hands full with this ski and I don't. The whole package has an OEM feel to it. The throttle feels almost to linear. It has a lot of power but I'm just wondering what some1 else thinks. I wouldn't hold anybody accountable if something breaks. Unless you crash it into another boat Lol. And feel free to ride the dog poop out of it.

I'd be having a conversation with the motor builder LOOOONG before resorting to free advice on an internet forum.

Never recommended a pump I told him I was planning on running a OEM 155 pump and he said that should be fine. I personally have very high expectations for everything. It very well could be performing as it should the problem is I don't know how a 900cc motor should perform. I would love to take it to Zach but its an 8 hour drive 1 way. Of some body jumped on it and said yeah I think its under performing or hey this thing is awesome. Then I would no were to go from there lol

Tim, its the pump. We all had high hopes for the stock 155 setup, but it is proving to be less then stellar for that arm ripping low end hit vs. a mag of any size. I thought you had a 155 mag when we had that prop made up for you and found out later it was the stocker. No engine will ever be even close to its potential if its being held to low in the rpm by the driveline setup. Switch that 155 out for a mag and I assure that you will get torn off the first few times;)

If only there were somebody that knew exactly how this particular engine should perform, and if only that person was within reasonable distance from you.
