Trying to get a handle on how speed increases with a given amount of horsepower increase. My question: Looking at the 115 Yamaha engine and know that the SHO with another 300 rpm available produces a bit more HP and wondering at the top end with any of the performance packages IF you would see any noticeable gain with say a 8-12 HP increase? With the price of only a few hundred more and if you saw an increase of say 1.5 or 2 mph that it would be a good buy. However, I doubt the engine makes any more midrange power so it would just be at WOT if needed...
