a boost bottle is a small nitrous looking bottle that mounts to the car, and has a fuel line going into the carb.
When a nitro mill decellerates quickly, some fuel puddles in the carb and combustion chamber. then, when u get on the gas again, the engine will bog down for a second or two, before this fuel clears out. you feel this, when u squeeze the go trigger and the car takes a second before the rpm's really climb. The boost bottle is supposed to allow the fuel to gather inside it, instead of the carb, thus allowing the engine to accelerate much quicker. In theory anyway.
This is not that usefull in bashing, but if u race it give an edge in acceleration out of the turns.
There is some skepticism as to whether or not this item actually works.
