Hey guys i've been looking into buying a Power Boost Valve for my 2001 Cooper Sport 500.

Just wondering if they are worth the money. Will it make much of a difference??

Any help would be great.

Farting in the manifold would be more effective...

The topic you describe seems to be about a chip which as you says just confuses the ECU, im talking about the mechanical option which increased fuel pressure.

i think minirhk is going on about the adjustable fuel pressure regulator. i don't like they way they call them power boost valves! makes them sound poo. anyway i have found from personal experience that they help remove flat spots from engines, and are worth the buy.
