ok
so what he has is a weird boost bottle.

why not put a boost bottle on the 49cc spree? The 49cc pocketbike guys are doing it. I'm premixing my gas so why not use the barb where the oil went into the intake manifold?

boost bottles are not ment to add power or topend.its ment to clear up off throttle to on throttle responce.it helps supply air and fuel mixture for the short moment that carb can't supply because of low air flow through the carb.

Not really :imo:

I ride my spree WOT all the time. This only helps smooth out the transition between off throttle and WOT.

Nothing I ever came up with was this simple...

You are going to need some overly complicated hose routings that actually double back onto themselves, some black marker drawings on the side, a little bit of bandage tape and... a spoon bent in a horse shoe to make a "mounting bracket".

over.
