Default Boost Injection Bottles?

I've seen these Boost Injection Bottles over the internet and ebay for pocket bikes and gas motor scooters. Have you guys heard anything good about them? Just wondering. I've heard they're like NOS (nitrous) for your pocket bike. Also, I've seen other cool accessories for pocket bikes like under-glo neon lights. ANY ADVICE?!?!?

A boost bottle is not NOS, nor is it anything like NOS.

NOS is compressed.

A boost bottle simply holds excess fuel to "dump" into the cylinder upon the next intake cycle. It works on gravity the same as the carb. You can get the same effect by installing a larger carb and jetting it properly.

Boost bottles are crap on a pocketbike. They're probably crap on anything you can put it on since a proper sized carb and a tuned pipe will do this for you and do it much better.

You can get real wet NOS kits for the 110cc bikes. And I'm sure you can either get or make a NOS kit for a pocketbike.

If a boost bottle made a differene then your pipe and/or carb weren't doing their job properly. Boost bottles were made to be the "poor mans fix".

The boost bottles will only work properly if your power bands aren't over-stretched. Also make sure to grease your muffler bearings regularly otherwise the extra boost will fry them!
