    Boost Bottle Theory

    How does a boost bottle in a banshee increase torque, or what is the theory on that?

    also has anyone has their fmf fatty pipes leak from the Joining hose (idk what its called im having a brain fart, but its inbetween the pipe and the silencer)?

    mine leak too and the boost bottle..

    When your riding and your on the trottle when you let off the gas all the air and gas goes into the bottle so when you get back on the gas its a boost of extra gas and air to the motor.. 1980s technogly.

    oh that makes sense, so instead of it having to overload the cylinders when your trying to slow down, it just keeps it like in a resevior untill u need it instead of having to take it back from the air filter right?

    Do u have a pic of your setup, im kinda having a hard time trying to find a good place for the fuel line. thanks

    did u have a hard time putting your gas line back on when u reassembled your quad? i had a hell of a time, also doesn't the gas line vibrate alot b/c its basically touching a part of the engine?

    Mine was a pain in the *** only because it was cold and the line didnt want to flex over the fittings. I have my t.o.r.s off now so my gas line is up higher away from the motor so I dont think mine vibrates.

    its the big hunk of crap on top of your carb, vitos has a kit that you can get it replaces it with normal carb tops and some other misc stuff

    its called t.o.r.s throttle over ride system, its sorta like a coverner or a throttle limter, it senses if the throttle is wide open and if it is its suppose to cut off or something, they never work and it makes changing the clip positon on the needle a pain in the ***!
