Default RE: U Can Do 60

I know it's been posted before but I'd like to get some updated information. Those of you running Saito 100's what is the concensus with props. I primarily use a 15x6 APC with good results, but I have also used Zinger Pro wooden 15x6 props as well. The Zinger is about 200 rpm off of the APC which isn't too bad considering it's much lighter.

But the real question I have is about the APC 16x4W. I ordered one a few weeks ago from Central. After receiving it I was amazed by it's size. That thing is huge. I thought about throwing it on the UCD to try it out, but I'd have to hack up my Aluminum spinner. I'd rather not do that unless the 16x4W is going to be outstanding. If it's something I won't end up using I probably will just save it in case I ever get a YS 110. So for those of you with Saito 100's what is your thought on the 16x4W? I've heard some complaints about spoolup time being slow. What are your thoughts and what are your rpm numbers? My Saito currently turns the 15x6 around 9800-9900 peak rpms. I usually run it around 9650.
