#198
Hello guys, great forum! After much reading its obvious you guys are pro at this. I want to repower my 9.5 MBX with some quality power and with my limited knowledge have a few engines in mind. The Boost is an amazing $199 complete with a pipe and header so its almost top of my list. So here goes:
Picco Boost set $199
Novarossi Plus 21-5 $250 - ?pipe?
O.S. 21VZ-B V-Spec #13895 $240
T-2050 Tuned Pipe $140 }almost $400! I could buy two boosts!
any other suggestions would be great, thanks

Hello guys, I´m new here, my name is lucas, and i´m from brazil.
I really want to buy a agama A8 and here is the only where i find informations about the car becouse in brazil none has this car yet, i think i will be the first one
...
I have already bought this picco boost engine, and i was searching which glow plug i should use, and i saw that u guys are using turbo plugs, but at OFNA´s web site they say that the picco boost uses standard plugs....
have a look here: ofna.com/picco-boost.php

Thanks.
Lucas.

Before that I had bought a Werks B5. W/ 1/2 gallon through it, nothing but problems. Couldn't idle and phantom flame outs. Just don't tell Ron I said that. I was really looking forward to the B5 but you can't run something that won't stay on.

Picco Boost is good, 2 gallons and running very strong. I really like the bottom punch, lacks a little top end but nothing major. Good fuel Mileage.

All joking aside if you still have the engine and need some help PM me your # and I'll give you a call to work through the tuning. It's really basic with these engines but if you get out of whack as with any motor it can get a little confusing.Ron

Lol, I hear ya on that! Good thing that the couple thousand B5's that are floating around in other peoples hands don't have that issue

I found the boost needed around 8 tanks to loose the mechanical pinch and to develop a nice pop when turning the flywheel. Give the Boost 4-5 tanks rich then start to lean the top out when happy with it work on the bottom, I found the Boost likes a slightly rich bottom end and a leaner top end....... The Original Picco 2046 chokes the Boost i found the Go Tech 2072 really woke the Boost up....
