Tales of the Sword Coast removes the cap. I didn't install it until my son had beaten BG. When I saw what it did, I installed it and have started playing BG from the beginning. In my opinion, BG+TSC plays better than BG alone, not only because of the removal of the cap, but (a) items automatically "stack" (i.e. if you have 5 arrows and pick up 5 more, you'll have one bunch of 10 arrows instead of two bunches of 5) and (b) unidentified items show up with a bluish background in your inventory. You also get two additional areas to explore (which I'd leave until you finish Chapter 6).
