Wow!!!! So glad to see you've done it. That is the sweetest thing I've seen in a boat. I turned the epicmarine guys back on to this thread. GREAT JOB!!!

So try this one one for size: I wish I could remember the exact quote, but in my Epic's owner's manual, TOYOTA recommends synthetic engine oil in the boating application. This is in the M1UZ, and it's hard not to think they spec'd it because boat engines can be under a higher load than most...

M1UZ is 10.5

Well put. Two things I'd like to add about why drivetrain weight savings are cool to wakeboarders. 1) Towing. I appreciate the missing 300 pounds when hauling up a long grade. Then again, I've started to haul metallic weight around with me ;-) 2) Lighter engine allows you more control over...

THANKS!!! for the feedback. I would have never guessed that there are parts in Washington. Atlanta, yes, Washa, no. Just so happens I need a new plastic engine cover. Did you really mean to say that the alternator is the same as an automotive design? I thought it would've been marinized...

Okay, now you've got me: "the contact there has a heap of original epic parts he is clearing out". Need to know more of what you're talking. Which dealership is this guy from? Could you share his contact info with us? If it's Atlanta Marine, we Epic owners would REALLY like to know if he's...

It's a toyota ECU (don't know much about it beyond that). The alternator's a marinized Denso and is a GREAT unit: mine's bench tensted up to 90 amps. I would not even consider running electrical equipment that's not marinized (spark proof) just for safety's sake. I did look into replacing it at...

Our Epics are in the neighboorhood of 1800 kg and propped to get to 69 km/hr at around 6,000 rpm. 1.26:1 gearbox and a 13" x 13" prop. Toyota's spec for my engine is 300 HP and 315 ft/lbs, with the redline mentioned above. To give you an idea what this VVT-i setup will do for you: last...

Yes, some of the guys have switched props to the newer CNC-milled ACME with a shorter pitch with really good results. As it turns out, some of the boats came over-propped from the factory - I'm leaving a couple hundred RPM on the table, and they set the rev limiters to 6K, which you know is...
