You'll still taper ~1-2 psi at redline but it will be a night and day difference to the stock setup.

Yes, youll need a boost gauge though to get it dialed it.

You will hold boost fine in the midrange but it still tapers a little from 5-7k. Open up your exhaust first before you start messing with the boost.

It's less than $100, just put the damn thing on and see if you feel a difference. Obviously, it's a BOOST CONTROLLER which means you will hold most of the boost up to redline...meaning you will have a little more power. If this was a few hundred bucks it'd be worth questioning and re-questioning, but it's not...just put it on.
