I have a 2017 AR 195 and the Lucky 13 is a game changer. The Lucky 13 with all three spacers has no impact on overall top speed and damn near eliminates all cavitation especially while loaded down with ballast or people.
Ok thanks. I didnt want to spend the 300 unless it really helped. I'll give it a shot.

Did you do the 3mm boring on the end as it suggests? I have a 2020 195s and thinking about adding this but not boring it out.

Ive read the cone is more beneficial to supercharged engines. I have a 2019 SX190. Would this help increase top speed? Or is this just about preventing cavitation?

No this will not help increase top speed.

It works on the cavitation side. Think of those hard turns while pulling tubes and the boat loses power or the hole shot when pulling a wakeboarder and it takes a second or three to hook up. The L13 cone eliminates or minimizes those events. It gives the boat a totally different feel while throwing it around.

I was having issues with hole shot on my AR190, especially when heavily loaded. The L13 cone made a huge difference. The top speed didn’t really change or at least I haven’t seen any appreciable change.
