That's a big jump, especially for 225
What rpm's are you at on the top end with the 22?

Your rpm's seem to be extended already with the 22!
You may see a Lil bit more speed with the 25, but the motors gonna be working hard to turn it, especially with 3 people in it!
How old is your 22 or how long has it been since its been worked!
That Lil sled of yours was turning out good numbers a while back

Yea, that prop don't seem rite!
Another 22 in new fashion would put u back where u were, unless yo can find a real good prop guy to get that prop back rite again!
Baggy @ Baggys prop shop in Houma does real good work on merc props!
I had a brand new 21 rev 4 that I wrapped a trap around on my second trip, out and he got it back perfect!
There's another guy that the guys on bass boat central swear buy, mark croxton with croxton props! They say he is the guru of working metal!
He also builds some propellars u may want to look into!

I'd like to know, my factory info tells me the tolerance is lower. My throttle hand tells me to shower on it some more!
