There are some major reasons why we prefer Southern jet. We have found that the Southern Jet intake size and shape out performs anything else on the market (especially when you get up in HP).
The cuttlas sleeves outlast the opposition hands down (we make decent sleeves for opposition jets, but there is no need for Southern Jets), I will post pics to show you what I mean
You get Cast Stainless impellers as std
The Trim nozzles are in my opinion the best on the market with the better castings and bearings with tighter clearances.
Over all I believe these are the best value jet on the market, I back that up with some very happy fellow boaters for whom we have fitted these jets.
I believe we were the first to fit an 8 1/4 two stage with the Lexus which was a huge success (done it a few times now_)
The other great thing is the hassle free backup service with allot of gear available off the shelf.
I can honestly say I wish I Had been dealing with them allot sooner.
These are genuine reasons why I am happy with their jets
