stock mbc
Trying to re-invent the wheel on the 4g63 is usually not a good idea especially when you're going with a bigger turbo.
1) Get a mbc/ebc please and don't mess with the stock unit...
2) Get a custom tune done by a professional (ecu flash or ecutek, although ecutek requires a licence and hence you pay more and usually shops will lock their tunes which means that you can't look at it. Well actually you can
)
3) You have to pay to play. If you want to go the cheap or easy route you will end up with issues in the future when it comes to going above the stock turbo.

i went mbc because i thought i was giving up some transient boost response with the oem ebc, but i was wrong. it turned out to be my oem bov.
i was just to lazy to swap back
the oem ebc requires a lot of dicking about, a mbc is far easier to tune over the oem ebc.
That is incorrect. It can be used to control any type and level of boost you want. It actually has features that some aftermarket EBCs lack. Closed loop load control with full error correction, RPM based boost (16 points), lower boost until engine warmup, etc etc
It is more powerful than people realize.

A user has to install a EBC or MBC, well, in this case, a user has to replace and install one factory pill with a different part and program his desired boost. This was not the arguement here however, you specifically said the solenoid was incapable of doing anything than maintaining stocking boost.
You can argue all you want, it's an easy thing to argue, alot of people don't understand it or give up trying to do it, but it works and it works well, I and others have alot of data to back up these claims.
