EBCs are nice to have, simple and reliable. I'm looking into the new profec type s. I like the design of it, just like the profec A but better.

if i do choose to use the internal gate at first, will i be limited to the maximum boost that the stock wastegate spring is set at no matter what the ebc is set to? like if the ebc is set to 10psi and the stock gate is at 8psi i will only get the 8psi right?

No you will get whatever you set the EBC/MBC is set at. My staock waste gate acuator only gives me 5.5psi but I run 11psi with the EBC.

i thought to hook up a MBC, you just t off the line between the actuator and compressor housing?

I have a Turbosmart MBC on a stock GT28r gate have some issues with the boost spiking about 2 lbs a little bit of boostcreep. EBC's are the only way to go as far as correcting you wastegates problem with fluctuating boost. I'm getting one this winter for sure.
