Bravo 3 duoprop - upgrade to 4 by 4 or stay with 4 by 3.

When investigating a change in props to achieve better performance, I note that there is a manufacturer of a 4 by 4 prop for the Bravo 3 but it does not appear to be Merc.  This is interesting,  testimonials seem to suggest that this is a good upgrade.  So I am asking the network if they have ever upgraded to a 4 by 4 system and what was you opinion on the results.

I see this is for a 236.The 4x4 by Hill Marine will give way more low end,better hole shot and lower planing speed.You lose some top end.I put them on my 270 last year made a big difference.

I changed from 3x3 to 4x3 and down a pitch made a huge difference in take off and did not change top speed. don't know about 4x4.
