It basically allow for finer boost control, especially as the boost rises.

It's not going to hurt, but might not be necessary. What's the car/mods etc?

I've fitted one to mine prior to my remap (coming soon ) for the reason stated above. I've put an Apexi one on (which I had from an old avcr)

Depending on when you're going for the remap I'll have one for sale from the 24th nov, it's one from the states that the boys use over there on their imprezas.. brand new inc plug. I just want to keep it until after then just incase the apexi doesn't work.
