header and down pipe will let you spool faster. an electronic boost controller may be nice (a lot of people say it's the same thing just more expensive but i've personally ridden in my friends WRS pushing 12lbs on a MBC and once he swapped it to a EBC you can easily tell a difference) port and polish the intake, or get an MSD ignition.

ummm not quite. there is no difference other than how you controll boost. meaning being lazy and doing it from in cab with a digital screen or the PITA way to get out and turn a screw. it does NOT change performance in any way but going from MBC to EBC

well perhaps the boost was automatically adjusted higher than it was w/ the mbc b/c there was definately a difference. he said it was the same boost setting but who knows... he's not the sharpest marble in the bag

it had to be different because it WILL NOT make a difference in power if the boost levels stay the same

The guy is venting. Thats something to do! Get either a recirculation kit for the Greddy Type RS or just get a Greddy Type S and hook that damn pipe back up. Speaking of that... i need to do the same because the previous owner was a d-bag.
