  You *DO* get more with IA vs "superchips", etc. "superchips" just
  eliminates the over-boost protection so you can run higher boost and
  grenade your engine if the WG sticks.     :(
  IA adjusts the over-boost limit upward to allow higher boost while
  retaining the protection feature, as well as increasing ignition lead,
  reducing retard as a function of boost, and increasing the rev limit, and
  possibly more, certainly a  *LOT* more that what "superchips" gets you,
  IMFO.
