Default Is this for real? Boost Hose

Guys I did try a forum search first - honest!

Can this product actually do what it says?

My head says that if its too good to believe then its not to be believed.........but then again........

Cant be up to much for £15, I have the Samco hoses fitted to mine and they cost around £70, so they must give at least at LEAST 40 bhp more.

the way i read it, its on about the resenator pill.
the smaller the hole, the more boost.

it says 1.35 bar from the early map sensor. when it maxs at 1.1???
it could do it, it would trick the car, and could damage the engine.
as we know, for 1.35bar, the car needs to be mapped for fuel/air

one of them gimic's that could go wrong in my eyes
