If i find a few extra pennies, i might move up to a stainless powertech and see how it runs. You'll probably see some aluminum props in the for sale section soon.

"Performance is pretty remarkable."
I told you so
Feels powerful, yet nimble, huh?.
"I come out of the hole with little to no bow rise. Probably because my tank is forward, and my console is a little forward as well, with no front seat."
Yes, somewhat, but actually more credit for this is due to the prop geometry. That is what
that prop is designed to do. IMO, it does it like no other aluminum prop.
If you go stainless, stick with the shape. PowerTechMQF3R15 for your motor. You can find'em for about $270.
Side note, ESD's prop has more progressive rake and cup making it harder to spin and frankly you lack power to get the most out of a Stiletto or Turbo. IMO, it's just not the right shape for 115 ponies on a 2500 lb 20. Just looking at the Stiletto I think you would need at least 150hp to move your load right with that wheel.
