They are pretty easy to install. But I would go with a different one, Aem for example.

I think you hit the nail on the head. The name on the box it came in was "Power Boost Valve". And it did give my acceleration a boost.

i found some AEM ones by googling, they were around $130.

how much of a difference does it make? is it worth me getting?

I think it's worth $130.00 You slam it on the gas and your car just pulls right in the same second. Or when you're in the 5th gear you tap the gas and your car responds right away. RPW also claims that by getting this mod you don't have to upgrade your fuel rail so there you go.

ooo ok. that sounds good. i dunno about any1 else. but when i slam the gas, there is always that second delay before it actually does anything. lol.

if this will help that, i'll get it.

Before you will buy this, remember, it's a supporting mod. It won't give you any more ponies under the hood.

And also it's fuel, so if you'll screw up the install ... good luck get a gauge to be sure everything is working like it should.

i will have it proffesionally installed.

it should work well when i get my pulley too.

my mission is to increase acceleration. nothing more..
so whenever i read the words "increased acceleration" my eyes light up. lol

plus saving gas would be nice too. lol

I dont know, different manufacturer and may not work in the same way as RPW's but I am real happy with mine. Did you look at RPW's web site and read thier description of what thiers does? It might help you in shopping around for a similar, but less expensive one.

RPW is raising rate fuel pressure regulator while AEM and B&M is just regulating the fuel pressure.

It's closer to $280 USD I'm sure that helps

I see where you got that and with shipping and "waiting" the above poster is right I'd keep that at the bottom of my list... oh wait! It IS at the bottom of my list
