Default Launch Differences- GT4XR vs Air works S300- Questions!

Lately, I have been trying to decide between going GT4092R or S366. I have been contemplating the differences between the two such as price, longevity, up-keep and things of the like. Lately I have been wondering how each will effect the launch of my car. I haven't been able to find much on this from users who have had both setups. A few of the questions I have been pondering-
How is your 2 step set up differently(if at all) by using the BW vs the Garrett or any other BB CCRA's?
I ask this because, even though I have seen the dyno charts and how they spool very similar, I have not seen any datalogs as to how the boost ramps are effected when leaving. I am worried about tearing up more drivetrain stuff with the BW due to having to possibly leave higher on the 2 step and putting more stress on the drivetrain. I know its somewhat of a broad question but I'd just like a little input.
Second- Very relative to the first question. How are the boost ramps different between the two down the track? Does one stay in boost better? Does one fall off here or there? I know there are many variables to each of my questions but, I'm not looking for exact answers, just somewhat of what your opinions/ideas of each setup are.
Please give me any input you may have and/or pointers. Thanks!

The S366 is a better turbo overall. The 4094 compressor isnt the most efficient, and the compressor and turbine arent matched well.

it must be just as good or better than what you have seen from garrett because people have done nothing but launch better and go faster with the BW units.
