It will be nice if they can finally move the idle screw on the back of the carb.

I know they don't own picco but picco should still ship the darn motors over here. I had one of their RTR 3 ports not to long ago and that little thing ripped. was a great mill for tracks with short run ups

Had a chat about the boost with the Greek importer at the track over the weekend. Picco told him that he will have them available to him in about 2 weeks and that it has a renewed carb, and 2-3 new boost ports that gives it a better linear power band. Still has the classic picco bottom end, its just more smooth right to the top.... Time will tell I guess, I dont think they have no reason to export to the states.
Picco finally realized that the biggest 'game' is in off-road and he shifted his production towards there, hence releasing the 3 new off-road picco engine ;-)

I talked to Nitro House and Ofna and they said that Picco is not sending them, but I am sure if enough people want them they will get them. Neal lives in Canada, can he get them over there?????

Lots of engines have this. As example in the Novarossi crankcase as with many brands there is a flat round spot at the side of the carb you can drill out for mounting a nipple. SH (and Force) does have some models with this nipple and a chamber in the rear backplate. connected with a a piece of tube.

But maybe I have missed it, where is it written that this Picco has a boostchamber?

Last night I saw this engine. Billy Easton was running it, funny. He wasn't saying too much about the engine. (YET) but it sound crisp on the bench. The engine is nowhere in the US and he already got one. Good connections? He was running it in his Serpent Buggy.
