No point getting a FSe unless you got a decent amount of mods like full exhaust, filter, cams, chip etc
waste of money

I sit here wondering if people actually listen or read peoples experiences on here and just do the Max Pooer route of modifiying engines
Save your money, get a new inlet manifold and a re-map then you will be looking at around 125bhp. Don't bother with a FSE boost valve, might as well fit a turbo zet while your at it

Sorry boys but too late, i spoke to a man who worked for demontweeks on the phone and he said that a fse power boost valve would be the best thing to get rid of me flat spots then a unichip.

if i was you i would
Source a Mantzel box
set of cams and Verniers
Headwork
Exhaust manifold
Full exhaust (decent make like blueflame or magnex)
Cat replacer
Unichip but you may need a Super chip to raise the rev limit to 7500 (where peak power with mantzel mantzel box comes in)
Set of ARP rod bolts as raising the limter will put stress on the bottom end
Once you have all these mods you can then use an FSE boost vale to increase fueling 
but then if you want to go hardcore get some Jverney Throttle boddies with Omex or DTAS management

so your going to beleive the person your paying for his product over the people that have had this conversation 100s of times and with nothing to gain either way?
i would be looking at getting a new inlet manifold, a set of fast road cams and vernier pulleys, good quality cat back exhaust system, a set of ARP uprated rod bolts and then the remap with a unichip. You dont need to do it all at once but leave the chip till last.

Bloke at Demon Tweeks was at the other end of the phone rubbing his hands and laughing at you.
It won't solve flat spots, flat spot is more than likely caused by lack of cold air getting to your cone filter. A FSE power wank valve won't help a standard engine.
Listen to what Fad has said and while your at it start saving your pennys.
