You won’t see any operational difference, the gauge will still run dead center. What it does is lower the pressure in the cooling system theoretically extending the life of the components and potentially avoiding an expansion tank, hose or radiator (catastrophic) blow out.

part # is 17 13 7 639 023 if you want to give it a shot, it’s a $10 purchase on amazon or my Dealer has it for $20.
