No they arnt. They change the sound a bit and do really nothing. A waste of money IMO

May I ask why you would want to reduce low end power and increase fuel consumption? That's what the BDX valves will do for you. If you want to get rid of the cables and servo motor, purchase a set of STM bellows-type valves. You still have a variable power valve, less weight, and smoother powerband. Have had a set on both the M8 and M1 in our household since new. I believe they have made a new unit that will work with boosted sleds, too.

i don't want to reduce power or increase fuel consumption that is why i asked if they work. i am new to cat and i have been looking at different aftermarket parts and came across the BDX valves. I thought that BDX made a good product and these caught my eye. Thanks for the info, i will not waste my time with these.

My apologies - I didn't mean for my post to sound sarcastic. The BDX valve is fixed at high port settings, and I suppose in a drag application they work fine. But, this significantly narrows the useable powerband of the engine, and pretty much every manufacturer is trying to build the best of both worlds (an engine with a broad powerband, which is why variable exhaust was invented).
