Default anyone got a flamer fitted to a RS2000? will it work??

ive got a mk5 RS 2000 and was thinking of putting a flamer kit on it but is it worth it.will it work. i know they work on turbos cause ive seen it but will it work on mine. ive read that they do work on some non turbos but alot of tests show they cant get them to flame . i want one but dont want to spunk my money on nothing ??????
