Yeah, it will work just the same, as long as you have some form of boost. All it does is restrict / close off th fuel return line and causes a huge spike in fuel pressure. That, in turn, forces more fuel through your injectors, thus making them work as if they are larger.

It can put a strain on your fuel system though. I'd advise larger injectors, pump, and MAF. Chances are, if you're creating that much boost then you've probably maxed out your MAF anyway.
