I just came off another boating related website and popped the question "Will
BRP ever bring the E-TEC down to 15 HP?" Ironically,only one person responded
and said,(...and I quote),.."It aint gunna happen,...you will be waiting,...forever,
probably until 2019 if at all!" Now,don't ask me why this person said 2019! So,..
I ask you guys,...what is your view on this? Would you agree with the dude that said on another site that it is not going to happen,...or not? I know that
Mercury stopped at 75 HP for the Optimax,...yet BRP takes the E-TEC all the way down to 25 HP,so why not down a little further to 15 HP? Could it be that
the new DFI technology does not see a market for DFI two strokes below 25 HP? I embrace the idea of cleaner DFI two stroke technology,but give me a
DFI motor I can possibly hope to afford and one I can swap my 'old technology' carbed two stroke for! If not,then I will go after one of those 25 HP EFI Mercury
four strokes as an alternative!
