Have had the boat out several times now after installing a new FloScan instrument. Would like some feedback from others that also are using a FloScan.
My engine is a pretty much stock 2.5 175HP EFI.
22 gallons per hour @ Wide Open Throttle (6000 rpm)
6 GPH @ 3000
8 GPH @ 3500

The EFI system I am using came off of a 1987 220 Laser, so the ECU is an old Analog unit. So far it all seems to be pretty well matched....1200 degrees at WOT with probes in the lower exhaust cover bolt holes. 18 hours on engine now. Running premium pump gas with Amsoil injector oil at 50:1 (oil injection system removed)

I tried to post this once earlier, but it didn't go through. It looks like no one is going to answer, and I'm sorry I don't have what your looking for. Only thing I can say is when I was checking out fuel pumps, the Tech. Support guys said 240 hp takes 35 gph to produce.

Back in the day our MVP boats w/2.4 carb would use right at 25 GPH at 7400 RPM. Thats with AV gas, 28cc heads. We ran lots of endurance races and I'm SURE of the 25 GPH number.
