Oh man you just threw 25 smackers down the drain. The "boost" bottle is nothing really. All it does is hold some misc pressure that your engine produces when you go from full throttle to closed. No major difference, only noticable for the real r/c nuts. I think I got this info correct, I've been outta the game for 4 years and just jumped back in. LOTS of $$$. Well what kinda car you got?

I used to be pretty big into this stuff but have not touched it ina while.

I have a losi GTX Pro with an O.S. CZ-12Z now thats old school! Along wth my airtronics caliber 3ps, still love that remote.

I have electric cars too just laying around. Losi XX CR, a kyosho Jetstream 1000 boat. Has an O.S. .32 water cooled nitro motor. I have yet to put that one in the water for some reason...lack of time I suppose.

Like everyone else said I pretty much stopped when I got my liscense.

i gotta Kyosho Hi-Ryder(i think that's what it's called)..it's like a monster truck frame with a fiberglass Vette body..we painted it like the old pace cars, black on top and silver around the bottom...I haven't touched it since I was like 11, but I really enjoyed it back then...would still be a cool hobby today, if I had money for a hobby..lol
