[QUOTE="Boat2fast, post: 342340, member: 13358"] The Merc 6,8,and 9.9hp are all 209cc engines. The 15hp Merc is 262cc. The Merc 18,20,25hp engines are 400cc. The Johnson Evinrude 20,25,28,30,35hp are 521cc engines. All of these engine are designed and tuned by factory engineers as marine 2strokes. Nobody left any horsepower "on the table". These engineers were operating in competitive market environment with big design and testing budgets. Now, years later, if you buy a 15 or a 25, that's what you get...depending on condition. A nice fresh 15hp with low use might outrun a rattly old 25 with a million hours on it. A good 25 will pull a tube and still outrun a good 15. [/QUOTE]
