How helpful is it to have ECU controlled boost?

[Serbj]

I searched on Google but didn't find very help information about it. As turbo'ed DSMers, do we need ECU controlled boost badly? How helpful is it?

I asked some people about this today. It seems that ECU controlled boost gives more predictable performance in the races that demands driving skills strongly, such as autocross. I also learned that tuning a car with ECU controlled boost is a lot of work.

I think for drivers who want more control of their cars, ECU controlled boost will help them a lot. And it doesn't cost you an arm and a leg.

It's for the EVO 8 stock turbo and 4G63T (not for SOHC 4G64).
