Status: offline 		all i know is i ran my rigs with out and with and there is a difference. i guess the question is how signifigant of and increase in performance is it worth to have these cool looking bottles on your rc and get a lot smoother and faster rc. maybe you dont get how it works. As the engine (any engine) draws fuel and air in through the carb on the intake cycle, the spark plug fires this mixture forcing the piston down and sucks a small amount of air into the carburetor for the next intake cycle. As the piston and crank bottom’s out on the bottom of the cylinder, the piston begins to make its return upward. As this cycle is happening, the piston pushes air back through the carburetor naturally under pressure. This action creates a reverb effect and causes the air / fuel mix to become double rich as by now it is processed TWICE by your carbs fuel jets. Most commonly, this results in rough idle, hesitation, bogging, and the ever-so- frustrating: Sputtering at top end. The reason the sputtering and bogging is happening is because of the double rich mixture. Heavy exhaust smoke, heavy engine loading is often looked at as too much oil / fuel ratio, bad carburetor, etc. While this may be one of those problems, it often is not. Your engine is actually choking itself out with a bad fuel mix! The installation of our Boost Induction Systems™ Boost bottles eliminates this nagging problem. (Hence the location of the inlet) Our Patent Pending Internal Metering System™ Automatically adjusts itself to work with your engines compression and carburetor. Our bottles will eliminate the reverb caused by your pistons return to top dead center (TDC) and remove the double mix! Now, with the bottle installed, operators are now no longer fooled by the double rich mix. This now allows proper adjustability of the carburetor! Tired of sacrificing top end speed for low end? Or low end speed for high? That’s because you have either a double lean mix or a double rich mix. (Rich for high end, low for low end)You cannot have one or the other without a proper intake booster (Boost bottle). The bottles will provide a “Boost” or “Supercharge” effect. It will even out the double mix (either lean or rich) and allow your engine to idle 3–4 times smoother and decrease your engines vibration. try it what can it hurt ???? try a gasser bro and enjoy
