E-J, you never know until you try, but I'd guess a 4-blade prop might well reduce your hole shot - you want a little slip on the bottom end of the power curve to let the motor spin up. As I have said in other threads, I had good luck going to a prop with less blade area and low rake - it greatly improved acceleration and I did not lose anything at the top end.

I am not familiar with the Vengeance prop,so I can't compare it to what I ended up with - Power Tech SCD3. However, I had a great experience contacting Power Tech and getting a recommendation from them. Once I explained my situation in detail, they came up with what seems to be an excellent choice.
