The boost bottle is expanded space for air to go whe the reeds close. You don't want the air going back to the carbs. When you nail the throttle, the air in the boost bottle will be sucked through the reeds first, so there is basically instant throttle response. I noticed a difference on my banshee!! They don't make them for thumpers as far as i know.

Hay guy is there anything online about the boost bottles? Anywhere to buy them online also? I might just try one on my Banshee.

I am going to be getting a boost bottle soon. All the built Banshees around here run them. I figured for $35 it wont be that big a waste of money if they dont work, but like I said, everybody I know has one and swears they work, sooo...
