The problem with MBC's is that the boost setting changes with regards to changing atmospheric conditions.
When the ambient temperature drops, the boost level will rise.
When the humidity changes, the boost level will change.
Changes to ambient temperatures can change boost levels 2 - 3psi easily and as much as 5+ psi in certain cases.

This is where EBC's are superior.
Find an EBC with a feedback, dedicated boost sensor, like the A'PEXi AVC-R.
With it's own feedback boost sensor, it knows exactly how much boost the turbo is producing no matter what the ambient conditions are.
This means once you've set your boost to 10psi, it will always be 10psi.
With EBC's you also get fancy options for monitoring and possibly datalogging - this can allow you eliminate stand-alone gauges.
Most will come with fancy options that can control boost via transmission gear selection, vehicle speed, engine RPM's, etc.
Some EBC's also have "self learning" that will give you the most aggressive boost curve possible.
With MBC's, you're stuck with a set boost curve that might or might not give you the best boost ramp possible.

I also seen some that will give a signal for water/meth injector which I have been thinking about doing.
