Whats the crack with these, im trying to get my engine up to the highest spec money wise before i get it remapped or buy a remapped ECU ...
want to get Dblias flowtech induction kit, 4-2-1 and someone suggested to me a powerboost valve so what do you all reckon, anyone give me an insight on what they do and also can they be fitted without the secondry air pump in place..

It's justy an adjustable pressure regulator, and they are known to die randomly aswell, a adjustable weber one is a much safer buy (he says still using an FSE, lol)

I have one on my c20xe.
Got rid off all the flat spots all the way thru the revs. Made it a little more smoother thru the revs too

waste of time and money unless you go onto throttle bodies. its just an adjustable pressure regulator, and no better than a standard item really. FSE ones are crap as well, they tend to 'wander' all over the place between 2.5-3.5 bar when mine was set to 3. now ive got a fixed 3 bar webber item.
