Bin it more trouble than they are worth in my experience....

No gains, they cause bore wash and premature engine wear, bin it.

unless your underfueling u wont achieve anything... lke stu said.. pointless

Get it set up on a rolling road.

They do nothing on some cars and work on others, mine deffinately is worth it!

Them things are a complete waste of money unless the engine is highly tuned and needs buckets loads of fuel pouring down its throat!

I had one put on my olValver and set up on a rolling road,It defo worked on my car,much more snappy throttle.Valve,Chip,Exhaust worked well together IMO

 

[stu8v]

If the chip was written correctly there would be no need for a boost valve!

 

[Tom_16v]

You cant argue with the fact that on some peoples cars it works!

I put mine on, better throttle response and feels better pulling in higher gears.

Some people (ok, might be most) that have had one dont think they work but their are people like me and Tucks, had ours set up properly and they deffo work.....

my girlfriend has a zetec s and before it kinda lagged pullin power in the lower revs but as soon as she had the boost valve fitted it really made a difference it beats my valver up 2 4500rpm untill the cams kick in obviously!!!

end of the day you can put it on and if it dont make it any difference and causes you hassle the you can always take it off and fit the standard 1 bak on!!!

Well everyone is entitled to an opinion but in my experience you cant beat a chip/piggyback set up on a rolling road. No other gizmos needed!
