nope won't add bhp but can add more scope for fuelling. Some tuners such as Revo won't map to stage 2 without one. PM me if you want one

I added one to my stage 2 custom mapped K04 car. As above, Revo state it as a necessity. Injectors were right on the limit on the 3 bar, although 4 bar does add a bit of extra strain on the fuel pump iirc.
