in general, increases in boost from a WGA will have the same HP as using an MBC for the same boost. the 2 have different boost curves (the MBC builds boost faster), so the aren't carbon copies.. But rest assured, you will make the same HP they did with their WGA by using a MBC set to the same boost
The problem with these "stiffer" WGA's is that you will not be able to get away from the part throttle / full boost, even with an rpm based EBC, or a dual stage MBC.

great.. thanks for the update.

Was yours in stock? I didn't have to send my stock WGA, they have some in there. I might not even send back the stock WGA, but I am not sure.. the 100 bucks is hard to swallow for something that will sit on a shelf.[:0]

was debating on sending stock one back, I'd like the stock WG to change out for warranty work but it depends on ease of changing it out each time. one thing I know for sure is I won't be sending the stock WG back imediately.
