Using cold start valve for enrichment...

Hey guys. I had posted a Q as to why my car (92 300E) was faster after a cold start in the tech help question, and what I got back was something along the lines of added fuel from the cold start valve. Ive been looking for ways to speed up my benz short of spending major cashola and as you guys all know... have ended up with almost nothing. Then I got this cold start idea. Does anyone know what controls the cold start valve? Or how it even works? I want to use it to enrich fuel under full throttle, basically wire in a couple of switches similar to a NOS system. Where I can activate the system with a button, and then once activated, the car would enrich the fuel when the acc. pedal hits another button on the floor. Even if this yeilds an extra 5hp under full throttle, I think it would be worth it, as it would hopefully cost next to nothing. Any ideas? (And yes, everybody has already told me performance = fuel+air, and im not an idiot, that is kinda obvious, so don't restate the obvious please... I am hoping that with my sawed off air intake, I will have enough air passing through to be able to use the added fuel.)
