ECU Chip Programmers / Tuners

Hello all,
Just bought a 2021 Shoalwater 21' CAT, w/ Suzuki DF200. My question is: Are there ECU programmers on the aftermarket that boost HP? If so, which ones are best?

I feel like the DF200 is a bit underpowered. I just sold a 22' bay boat style hull with a DF250. It was needless to say, way faster. I understand the CAT hull will never perform like the 'V'. I just want more power.

In short, no. Nizpro does tuning for Yamaha and there may be some individuals that can squeak some from certain Mercs but no tuning that I know of for Zuks. Google it, I may be wrong.
What are you getting for speed? How much adjustment have you played with in JP and trim settings? That boat with that motor should be low 40s I would think.

Congrats on that Shoalwater. Your boat isn’t a fast hull. Regardless of what motor or horsepower you’re not going to see a huge increase in speed. You can run fast and run shallow but it takes lots of dollars. Something like a SCB 24 would do what you’re looking for at around 125k.

Good find Joe. I used to have a link to another one but can't find it.

The ZUKs can definitely be 'flashed' for more output. It will void the warranty but it's ZUK anyway...

The speed you are getting with you 21 Shoalwater cat and 200hp is X-mph.....

If you spend another $75k or so and get a 600hp your speed will be X-mph plus 5mph....
