ZENOAH Boost Bottles

Post by c103110 »

Has anyone here installed Boost Bottles on a ZENOAH? Do they 'Boost' HP as advertised?

Thanks.

If I was to do that, I would just use a soda siphon CO2 bottle (used) with a fitting in the end.
I remember seeing these things for nitro motors arond 2001. Don't know if they are still around for that purpose, either. Got me thinking, though...dammit!! :roll:

So, I couldn't help myself....
I just made some soda water for my kids.....so now they know how to carbonate water - they got a kick out of it.

Also, I now have a vessel to muck with.
I ground off the seal, threaded the bulb M5, and bunged in a Du Bro fitting..all just stuff lying around the workshop.
Reckon it's worth a try?
It cost me nothing to do.
I now have it soaking in acid, as the interior is a bit rusty.

Once it's all clean, Should I use it?? or are these things a waste of space?
