For those of you wanting a Surf pipe you have the option to goto Fresh Air Exhaust and get one for your boat.
I had one of my 08 when the FAE was a new idea, then the very first one for a Mojo I did the mark up for FAE to build it on my 13-
Great product and I am pretty sure that they were some of the first to make them before the dealers started to OEM them.

13 hours in... misc. thoughts
- The prop discussed early in this thread (15.5 x eight) seems to be great (basically sea level elevation) with my normal crew + 2 adults. Pulls well out of the hole with a smooth top speed. Added 3 more adults and 3 teenagers (so, 8 people over 150 lbs) and seemed like with full ballast it didn't like full throttle starts or sharp turn pulling a 3 person tube (no ballast). It could hold speed, just seemed to be working really hard.
- Chilltech is pretty sweet, only gets super hot if the boat is sitting in the direct sun with no wind for 45min+, otherwise manageable
- Rear shade is a good idea, but since you "can't" drive with it up, I basically never use it
- Audio seems good right out of the box with minimal adjustments on the head unit
-I've got the rear wake maker upgrade but I've got to move the sensors up, so basically running stock ballast. I'll say that even being the case, I'm not unhappy with the wave. Looks great, just not quite enough push.

More feedback, the 15.5x18 is not the right prop for the ballast upgrade and a full crew. It "will" get on plane, but man it's working hard and takes 10-15+ seconds of WOT.
I just ordered a prop puller and a 15.5x16.5 (OJ 932). I'll keep my 18 as a backup. I was tempted to order the 15.5x15 but figured that would be a large change and I'm usually only with that big of a crew one day per month or less.
I think I'll be getting some lead at some point (probably once I get a different tow vehicle) so I'm glad to be changing props. I will say though, if you surf with a light crew, or don't surf much at all with a larger crew, the 18 is very fuel friendly and does great at low elevation for everything else.2022 Makai 400

Kind of wondered on the 18 how well it would do heavy. You'll like the 16.5 on there, its a good all around prop
