Is there a thread that shows what vboost is and how it works?

Is there a thread that shows what vboost is and how it works?

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The V-Boost System gives a Turbo-like power boost to the V-MAX motor. Four downdraft carburetors feed the cylinders through individual inlet tracts. However, the tracts between cylinders one and two and cylinders three and four are separated by butterfly valves. The valves are controlled by servo motors that measure engine rpm. At approximately 6000 rpm the servos start to open the butterfly valves until they are completely open at 8000 rpm. With the butterfly valves open each cylinder on an intake stroke is fed by two carburetors, rather than a more conventional single unit. Horsepower is considerably increased especially in the mid-and high-rpm range.[/FONT]

85 v-max so cable out of ajustment, some bad connections on controller or worn servo would be a normal thing.
However theres no need to fine tune this up like that.

Possibly has a "T" boost installed.

Possibly has a "T" boost installed.

I would also second that as an option.

KJ, that was Great. I've known the "How It Works" for some time but never actually seen it work..
