Hard to determine without more information. Generally speaking, the stock turbo is best for a stock engine.

I'm having trouble finding the specs.

I don’t know exactly but it’s a
 .420 lift. I’m sure it has better duration as well. Stage one is what RW called it.

Probably better than stock, but I don't think it's going to compensate much for the slow turbo spool.

I missed this earlier and it's curious indeed. All the EEC-IV ECUs have an access slot in the end opposite the harness plug. It comes with a small plate over it secured with a screw. That access slot covers the J3 port which is the only way to "chip" a stock EEC-IV computer. Various companies made them back in the '90s and Moates is the only one still doing it AFAIK. Some did allow for table switching.
