[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 271593, member: 7791"] Ok there are far to many variables going on here to say that the 9.9 is stronger than the 15. You have them on different boats, and the motors most definitely have different props (which can make a huge difference). I can put a high pitch prop on my 15 and make it seem like a dog, and then put a low pitch prop on my 9.9 and make it seem like a race motor when it comes to hole shot. What I am saying is on the exact same boat I can make a 9.9 feel way more powerful just by putting a low pitch prop on. The 15hp may be way over propped and is not getting to the recommended RPM to produce 15hp? Also have you checked compression on the 15hp? [/QUOTE]
