We think you should re-vent your 26 Trophy and that the right PVS plug combination would boost your hole shot and perhaps it is the propeller for your rig. We like a Trophy on a couple of rigs and we are not prepared to throw it away. They are still good wheels, though a Fury is a more forgiving propeller and folks like that.

Ive thought about this for a few minutes and still cant come up with a explanation of how you can only get 73 to 74 out of a true 26 pitch fury hitting the rev limiter. Youve got to be over trimming or youre to high on the plate. I read your post and you said no difference where the plate was positioned. I know of no one here that has turned the fury that cant beat your speed Nos, including 225s. Something is not right? I would question the props true 26 pitch. I would try another fury before spending any more money to work this one. The Fury is one great prop. Glynn

I hit the rev but it is at 77-79 with my 26 Fury on a late (august) 2008 puma w/250 pro x/s. I think the 27 will be the right one for the 08 puma. I have one on order and will post when I can.

Wish I was having all the fun at the owners t. hopefully next year.recently I put a new 26 fury on my 08 puma with 250proxs. Saturday I had a tournment at Barnett and with full tanks, gear, partner I was all over the rev limiter. Speeds were around73-74, with a great hole shoot and super accleration. With the 26 trophy I normally could run 77-78 with terrible hole shoot. The jackplate was near bottom but made little difference when raised. Should I try the new 27 fury or have my 26 fury reworked. Any help would would be appreciated. Maybe Phil could chime in. Streakosilver (Eddie)

My other question —-is this prop under warranty????

They should be under warranty if they do not have so much as a nick in them, and a Fury, Tempest or Trophy should run on your rig. Though we actually like a standard 25 Pro Series M model, Not the T style.

Whats the differece between the M and the T. My 250 came with a 25M and Id like to step up to a 27. I can use similar advice.

The T is a larger diameter VX series, and the M is the Pro Series in a smaller diameter. Both are three blades. Most rigs will just pull a 27T though some people prefer the 27M or 25M, and drop a few MPH. Every rig is different and you will just have to try one. We would also try a Fury on your rig with that 250VZ we assume. BCB

I would highly recommend a Fury Prop. I have a 2010 PIV with 200HPDI Series2 with a 25P Fury prop. Good luck. Flyswatter
