40 GDSD FNR
I went test drive one during the week and ended up ordering one this morning. Anyone have any experience with it?

Re: 40 GDSD FNR
You getting electric trim or manual? I’m thinking about getting one myself.

Re: 40 GDSD FNR
It's not the horsepower, everyone thinks 3 more hp than the 37 can't be much. The profile of the cam adds a lot more torque. Where the 35-37 peaks hp and starts to flatten out, the 40 is still climbing. The hp is rated at 3600rpm. I don't know the true hp but it's probably close to 50 when you're at 4800-4900rpm. It's a much bigger jump than just 3 hp.

Re: 40 GDSD FNR
It was put on a dyno without an exhaust and popped 47 hp. With a stock exhaust it would prob be somewhere around 42, I'm guessing. Dont remember the rpms, but I dont think it was as high as 4900.

Re: 40 GDSD FNR
I've been having stage 1's for years and it wasnt that much less power. Alot better throttle response.

Re: 40 GDSD FNR
Best part is power is in mid-range not just top end...
FNR frame is pretty cool too...

Re: 40 GDSD FNR
I've been with gtr since 2011, once I seen how well built the GDSD FNR is I knew I had to switch over. Its built 100 times better. I haven't seen how they perform in the veggies in south la but I'll find out soon

Re: 40 GDSD FNR
It has no power in mud or veggies. Reverse is good only in open water, Doesnt run worth a shit with a load. It drives amazing though. Like a outboard. It's on a 1648 prodrive hull

Re: 40 GDSD FNR
Now that you’ve had it a while what do you think ? How strong is the reverse? I have a 18x48 GD surface drive hull with a Prodrive and I’m thinking of going with the 40 FNR. I live near Warren so service is real convenient. I like the power of the 40 and throttle response of EFI. I have an older stage 2 PD carb and I’m ready for something new .
