-1) There really isn't much to rebuild on the "fancy" ones..just an
o-ring (if worn) and some Mobile 1 grease IF/WHEN it ever
sticks/leaks...never had an issue personally but it can happen.
-2) The issue w/ the 710N or 110 is that they can tear..and will tear
under higher performance applicatons. So you can spend 40 bucks a shot
and replace it a few times or buy a lifetime part and only have to
lube/clean it once a year if that. The choice is yours.
-3) Is the part going to give you better performance then a 710N/110?
Well I doubt it..but just one less thing to be worried about in the
quest for speed.
- Can you spend your $$ somewhere else? Absolutely..but for
~140 bucks you aint going to find much else that is a 10 minute mod.

But does it actually perform any better than the Bosch 710n?
I'm all for paying stupid amounts of money for crap that makes my car
faster, but if all it does is sit there and be shiny and rebuildable
I'll
pass.
Seems like you could buy another 710n for the cost of the rebuild kit
for
the fancy one.

You are talking of the Bosch 710N BPV. Works fine but I prefer the
"fancy" rebuildable valves from Hyperboost/Strat, Forge, and Bailey.
Guess Dahlback is making one too.
