Nitro Engine Boost Treatment Article

The Hot Bodies Nitro Engine Boost arrived in exquisite chrome-paper packaging with crisp white lettering and some `hot' red and black highlighting on the `Hot Bodies' and `Nitro Engine Boost' trademarks.

The smallish glass bottle of Nitro Engine Boost contains about an ounce of cloudy liquid. Mine had some material that had settled to the bottom of the bottle during shipment, but it mixed right back up after about 15 seconds of shaking (the instructions warn you to "shake well' before using the product).

Also included were two plastic eye-droppers (applicators), each had different size tips.

The Nitro Engine Boost Engine Treatment Application Methods brochure folded inside the box shows some informative before and after pictures of engine blocks and glow plugs.

The difference between the treated and untreated parts is readily apparent. The treated parts are much cleaner.

The pictures describing the difference between Methods 1, 2 and 3 need some explanation:

The picture for Method 1, where one full applicator of Nitro Engine Boost is inserted into a full tank of glow fuel, shows the engine installed in a nitro vehicle. This makes sense since instruction #5 says to start the engine and drive it for 1 full tank. The other two methods, however, show engines on the bench being treated with one full applicator of Nitro Engine Boost being inserted into the carburetor throat or glow plug hole. The last instruction, in both cases, is the same as in Method 1, start the engine and drive it for 1 full tank. I'm sure that these pictures were used for clarity and the engines should have been shown installed in a car. I mean, it's not necessary to remove your engine from the car to perform the treatment, in fact, please don't.

The photos for Method 2 and 3 on the Application Methods sheet show a Hot Bodies .26 big block engine, so, for my treatment experiment, I used the same engine (installed in a brand new Hot Bodies Lightning Street RTR) I just happened to have laying around. I figured that if the Nitro Engine Boost was effective on the big block engine, it would be even better on smaller, higher-winding nitro engines.

First, I followed the manual's instructions for engine break-in. I used Byron Originals RACE premium R/C car fuel with 20% nitro and 16% lubrication for break-in and all subsequent running. After break-in and leaning out the high-speed adjustment (per the manual, again), over 5 tanks of fuel, I put in the first treatment. I used Method 1 from the Application Methods sheet and added the Nitro Engine Boost to a full tank of fuel, after fully warming up the engine with some high-speed bashing. After inserting the Nitro Engine Boost, I went back to the bashing and kept an eye and ear on the performance of the car. I really didn't notice any change during the first tank, so I took a chance and treated a second tank, using the same method. Toward the end of the second tank, WOW. I couldn't believe how much faster the shift between first and second gear came compared to before the treatment. I finished the second tank and treated two more tanks just hoping to squeeze more performance from the Nitro Engine Boost. Nothing more, oh well. I'm not minimizing the effect I got after the second tank of treatment. Not even! The increase in power was more than evident. The car launched with much more authority and the quicker acceleration to the shift combined with more top end was truly impressive. I can't recommend this product highly enough. It's easy to use and really packs a punch. I did find that it took two tanks of treatment to get my car's engine to really feel treated, but I'm not complaining. It might take you only one, or it could maybe take three, but once it gets there, look out! I don't know what is in this stuff, but I wonder if they have any that would work for my reflexes?! Maybe that's too much to ask.

Here"s the bottom line, in my opinion:

Treating your engine with Nitro Engine Boost will result in easier starting, smoother idling, more power, faster acceleration, reduced crankcase deposits, less glow plug fouling, and longer engine life.
Problems that may be cured through treatment with Nitro Engine Boost:

Difficult starting
Rough idle
Dirty crankcase
Fouled glow plug
Reduced acceleration

i. Stumbling during acceleration

ii. Lack of power during acceleration

iii. Less power than before

Low engine power
