Weight is about the same on both. The displacement on the V6 is about 25 more cubic inches. (about the size of one cylinder) I think you'll notice more torque from the V6. That XP version is Evinrude's high performance model 150. Uses special heads and 175 carbs. Actually puts out close to 165 hp. So, you are really moving up 25 hp.

Thanks, How much of a difference will that 25hp make on the top end? If my top speed is 55mph now, what should I expect with the Evinrude? Thanks, Scott
Likely you will have to move up one prop size. Could be up to 5 mph, depending on how you setup the 150. (running height and if you go with a stainless hi-rake prop.)
