The Pipe Booster is an upgrade for high-throughput logistics 
networks. 
When placed adjacent to a pipe extraction point and powered with RF, 
it massively increases the speed at which items and fluids are 
pulled from a connected inventory.

**Extraction Performance**

- **Item Pipes**: Accelerates the extraction rate to one full stack 
every tick.
- **Fluid Pipes**: Increases the throughput up to 50 buckets per tick.

<Callout variant="info">
    A pipe booster must directly target an **extracting** pipe block 
    (the interface where the pipe meets the machine) to have any effect.
