And a different intake cam, both of which make more power at higher rpm's which is why the limiter is raised over the 300hp Pro XS. Basscat is supposed to be doing a test of both outboards as I imagine the 300R is pushing the 10% rule...

basically the engine is only going to turn its rated rpm. you can run a smaller prop but it wont allow you to rev the engine higher.

There is no traction Controll. I can raise my engine on the jp and it will shoot right up to redline if I give it wot. In the manual there are troubleshooting tips that the dealer can see such as rpm requested vs power given. So if you give it half throttle the CPU might say 3k rpm is requested, the engine might only need to give 30% power. This is how it holds its speed in turns, we are only requesting an rpm from the CPU and the engine does what it needs to get there. Another thing I noticed when running in bigger swells is that when the prop leaves the water at 3/4 throttle it doesn't shoot to redline like the engines before.

Not revving to the moon when getting air is good. I'm not digging the speed control thing in the turns. Why couldn't they just keep things simple?

Makes sense since these new engines have an electronic throttle body. Call it what you want, but the throttle body is dictating the power made based on the load and the programming decides what to do. You are not completely in control of the throttle anymore like an older cable throttle, same with vehicles that have all gone to fly by wire and you're somewhat at the mercy of the engineer who designed it to operate a certain way.

The 300 Sea Pro makes 276hp, so it would gain 20hp going to the standard 300hp tune. The standard 300hp has a 200hp lower rev limiter than the 300hp Pro XS, but show to make the same 296hp@5500rpm. Did he say what the limiter was going to be raised to? The 300R makes 316hp and has a 200rpm higher limiter than Pro XS, but it has shorter intake runners and different cam to make more power at a higher rpm.
