Its a bit of a turbo killer in most cases John.
The likes of wrc cars that run these systems will need turbo changes every
1k miles due to wear, if you see how it works, ie igniting unburnt fuel after the turbo to get rid of gasses rather than use a wastegate (think thats right) but it explodes it which causes the damage.
Really you dont need it on a road car, you wont notice any difference without it.

I have it on my evo but is not on at the moment because apparently it will knacker my turbo, having it installed when i have a ball bearing conversion, what i can gather is they wreck your turbo , so they do not last very long. I am on autronics ecu which has this device
