    The Turbo3000 is a joke...all it is is a stainless tube with a pair of cross bars in it. About the only thing the device does do is restrict fuel flow and on a ACERT this is a BIG NO NO. The ACERTs need more fuel flow to perform to their true potential. If you are still interested in a Turbo3000 PM me your address and I will give ya the one I bought and threw back on my work bench as a expensive paper weight. Many guys I know have tried it alnog with myself...it does nothing even after 1.5 years and 160,000 miles.
