Great for Wake Surfing
I installed the ACME 2305 on my 2014 MasterCraft X-Star with the 7.4L engine, and I’m extremely impressed with the results.
Even with a significant amount of ballast onboard, the boat gets on plane surprisingly quickly and smoothly. The low-speed acceleration feels much stronger, which is especially noticeable when running a heavy ballast setup for wake surfing.
Once I reach my target surfing speed, the boat feels very stable and consistent. The RPM stays steady, and the boat maintains the desired speed without constantly adjusting the throttle.
For reference, with full ballast, I’m running around 10.8–11.0 mph at approximately 2,340–2,360 RPM.
The ACME 2305 has made a noticeable difference in the overall drivability and performance of my X-Star, particularly with heavy ballast.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for better low-speed performance and stability for wake surfing.
