The stock WG is good, but if you need to rebuild it, it's cheaper to buy a Tial WG. Different springs are available for the Tial vs the stick unit. Also, I believe parts are cheaper to rebuild the Tial as well.

thanks for the explanation. I used to run a miller wood 7 injector and about 10 yrs ago I switch to the andial enrichment system on a euro full head. while dynoing the car I played with the differnt settings. I saw an improvement when going from settin 2 to setting three while running 17 psi. I didn't get any enprovement going to the 4 setting but I also didn't increase the boost either. What i saw was a 6hp at the rear wheels. I also monitor my IN/Out temp on my Monster Garretson I/C. I ran a little rich at 3500 ( 11.28 ) and from 3000 to 6000rpm I was at 12.0 to 12.10. My only problem was the turbo that I was using ran out of steam at 5200rpm. But not before I recorded 387 hp and 394 tq at the rear wheel. the turbo was a modified 3LDZ. gb
