The ECU mods and MBC both work and drive well. The MBC will get you to 14-15 PSI. An ECU mod will go higher.
The MBC will make the boost come on much faster by eliminating the boost controller induced turbo lag.
Many are very happy with the MBC, some want more power with the ECU mods. The MBC can be improved upon by connecting a air pressure regulator across the MBC to act as an anticipator to get a MBC+A. This elimintes the pressure overshoots that a MBC produces which causes fuel cuts at around 15.5 PSI.
With any increase in boost you need to have the engine in good mechanical condition, and keep it well maintained and lubricated. The cluch will be ok. But if it does not handle the added torque, then it was nearing end of service life anyways.
