1679 - OBr Bolt On Cylinder Reed and ADA juicebox boost bottle

[Sergio]

hi guys i was doing some reseach and came across these 2 products both claiming more power, has anyone used them or are they just a waste of money?

don't no to much on first one.but i hear boost bottles r a waste of money...

 

[Sergio]

yeah just read about the juicebox but i also read about obr bolt on cylinder reed on the baja forum and read some good things hopefully someone else has more info

Boost bottles are garbage. I would recommend porting the motor before adding a reed. Im not sure if you would notice a difference on a stock motor. Other than a good pipe there really is no bolt on hp.

yeah i did read about porting the engine first before adding the reed but i do like the way it looks

I've ran a boost bottle for a while and think they look cool and give people something to chat about but if they give extra performance it is definelty something that is so minimal they are not worth the cost nor hassle.

The Reed blocks from what I have read off other forums don't really do much either as the engine is a piston port motor to start with Not a reed case motor.

Yeah i may try one just For the cool factor

OBR offers the bottom end for reed engines also, I think if you go through their engine info and blogs you'll find plenty more info. I've found they are straight up and no BS in my dealings with them.

No boost bottles. Everything I've heard about boost bottles is "snake oil".

 

[Sergio]

I don't quite understand what you mean

 

[Chief409]

Read the OBR engine descriptions, look at the dyno charts, look at the blogs and ask using the contact button if you're not sure about something. Monday to Friday I've always gotten a reply the next business day.

Ok ill do that. In your opinión is it a waste of money?

 

[Chief409]

Mods are a matter of personal choice. Only you can make the decision.

I have a Prostroke 30.5 and use it in the Dune Runner. Bashing it's great, on a track it has more power then needed, sand drags, TBD. How would I rate it, 5 out of 5.

Ain't saying that is what I'll have in my upcoming custom sand rig though!

Anything I've ever read on boost bottles, they are a waste of money.
