Not sure, but I had a 150 carb'd Evinrude before I put the 200 etec HO on so:
Mid 90's 150 was strong.......likely 165 hp at the prop.
Ran my V21 to maybe 38-40mph WOT
2005 Etec 200 HO is powerful......also more than 200 prop HP.
Pushes the V21 to 50mph trimmed and very light, otherwise 47-49mph.
The other benefits are MANY......
Instant starting - every time, and immediately idles smooth, quiet.
No smoke
Purrs quietly at 3,500 - 4,000 rpm, the range I usually run which is mid 20's to 30knots.
Sips oil, easy on fuel, probably burns less fuel than the 150 did.
