Default Should I upgrade to V 1.5?

Hey all,
I'm about to start tuning closed loop boost control so that I can set up boost by gear to try and preserve 4th. Am currently on MS3ProPnP Release 1.3.4. Post #53 here on the Acamas thread talks about EBC algorithms being better on 1.4 and beyond. Would it be worth my while to upgrade the firmware before I dive into closed-loop boost?
Ta.

Many are still with 1.4.0 and 1.4.1. Look to see what in 1.5 you might want before putting yourself through Engine States. I say that while running 1.4.0 at present. Will be interested to see if anyone has new reasons to go to 1.5 (possibly direct CAN input from AEM WBO2 controller).

There are features in v1.5 that are nice, v1.4 has open source code.
