Performance? No.
Smooth? Resounding YES.
I'm talking you can cruise at lower speeds.
I'm talking turn the throttle less hesitating.
But that's my experience with them.

Watch out for any air leaks around intake hose!I developed one with out noticing,( caused motor to run to lean) it cost me a cylinder,piston and ring. I replaced all at begening of this week .Minus - kooso boost bottle.Have average speed of 38 mph. same as with the bottle.I will sell kooso boost bottle for $10.00 plus shipping if any one is interested. I payed $50.00.Comes with chrome bottle, blue tubing, and intake adapter.Ive been running it on a 47cc engine with walbro carb. It will help for cleaner reving and a little more pull on the hills.
