Anyone know if these are a good thing??? seem to be a perfect answer to improve the engine acceleration, but do they have any side effects due to the increased fuel pressure across the fuel rail?

OK at first (assuming you set the pressure correctly) but have a bit of a reputation for going soft with age.

Hi GreenV8S...can you elaborate a little? what goes soft with age? and does viagra help?
On a serious note...I need to find out a little more about them before I part with more hard earned cash!

Soft as in the fuel pressure drops off so the engine runs lean.

I have a rising rate regulator on the 350i. It works quite well, and is fully adjustable, so you can tune out any aging effects.
