    Better to be silent and thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.

    mpg is very subjective to the boat and setup...

    plan on about 20-22 gph at WOT at 5500+ rpm

    significantly less at partial throttle

    i have forund BWB to be dead on if you can find your motor on a simular boat. my 200xs was able to get the 7.5 mpg and runs regularly at 6+. will a 225 3.0l get that, i doubt it. at wot most 200+ motors are about 3.2 to 3.3 mph and that about what i get. [per my smart craft gps system]
