Default Boost Bottles?

What exactly are boost bottles and are they any good??? If so do they make them for the HPI SS .12 SS engine?

Helps acceleration from idle to top end by neutralize the pressure difference between low and high ends below the carburetor. Much smoother accelleration (no real increase in power)


I got this from tower after I did a search for "boost bottle". From what they say, it doesn't add anymore power. Just helps acceleration. Personally I wouldn't invest in one, well not yet anyway.

Hmmm...I don't know anyone in person who has used a boost bottle, but in the black nitro thread he has a boost bottle. You might want to talk to him. http://www.rcuniverse.com/showthread...85&forumid=215
