2003 619vs low rpm issue

[Highheat]

Hi i just got a 2003 619 vs with a 200 hp Optimax and a 9.9 kicker on the back. No jackplate, 21p tempest plus spinning only 5200 rpm and 47 mph top speed at WOT. amazing hole shot, but for more speed do i try a 19 or 20 p tempest?

Don't think there is a 20 pitch Tempest Plus. Check the vent holes. Since you have good hole shot you could potentially plug open vents on the prop...just a suggestion.
