Of corse i have a supercharger on my scoot, well that what a 18-19? year old told me. I was riding around looking for sold out tecumseh Sears mower air filter at oreilly auto close by. And a kid with a scooter asked me "whatsz that :scared: " (looking at the broken plastic and who knows what part bike he might of been driving i thought i'd place a smile on my face). After a few seconds of looking i told him it was the mini supercharger that came with some scooters, see how it fit's into the air intake? Well i cant say he was all that uneducated as he did want to race me to find out. His scoot didn't do to bad, for a used scoot beaten like a dead horse by the previous owner. DO i feel bad? NO <-- i have a don't play if you can't ---well---play! But i do have a "doint tell and i won't tell (your friends) policy." :lol:

Only if you have to do (like me) is just drive away to the next part store. I was only looking for parts for a tecumseh A/F.

How many psi are you seeing? I hear the exhaust driven type are really wild vs all that pulley driven stuff. On a serious note, you know the 4T guys are getting desperate when they're fitting reed valves on their engines. Sorry, it'll just never be a 2T. :tongue:

I just love all the emissions stuff they try to put on scooters. It boggles my mind why we need a emissions control system on a 50cc scooter, when 1 coal power plant is releasing more emissions than every single car in the country put together.

Cool, one more thing I've never seen one coming off of the pipe like that. The one I yanked off of the roadrunner went into the valve cover. It was the first problem I had with the scooter, a hose to the filter came loose and caused her to backfire and die, going up a hill. Pulled that off as soon as I could.

Well goosey, The exhaust for this stock Vip i have is about $85 just because it has that small welded piece on. When i need to replace the pipe, it's going in the trash. :clap:
