new 200 E tec vs 1998 225 Suzuki

[BrianH]

Im considering repowering my 76 23'Secepter no bracket

The dealer is telling me for the $ that a 200 E-tec will perform as well if not better than the 98 fuel injected Suzuki on my boat now.

His reasoning is the net hourse power of the 200 E tec is 220 Hp.

Im satisfied with the power output of my 225 Suzuki.

Is this a fair comparison? Will I get similar or better performace out a 200 hp E tec?

Thanks for your input
