sandman Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 I' ve noticed on the banshhee contest that some guys aren't running boost bottles (crossover tubes). The intakes they are running do not have the outlet tubes to accomadate one either. So what are the advantages to either setup, what is gained by not having one. I'm going to be purchasing some billet intakes real soon & just realized that this boost bottle thing was an option. Also do ALL the aftermarket intakes accept v-force 2 reeds? Trinity in particular.

RNBRAD Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 No real benefit to a boost bottle at least from what I've seen, I would probably save your money. You will need intakes that accept the v-force reeds. Not sure about Trinity but the pro-design you do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigboybanshee Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 From what I've been told, running no crossover tube increases throttle response (it's not a huge difference) but also requires you to have your bike perfectly in tune. Without the crossover tube, there is nothing to "equalize" the mixture going into the engine. You can get some billet intakes from Grand River Racing, those are where mine came from and they fit great with the v-force reeds...no crossover tube though I believe Boss racing makes a billet intake that has a crossover tube "built-in" so it elminates having the crossover tube hovering over your intakes, and it looks like there is no crossover tube at all but gives you the benefits of having one.
