WEP works with complex engine management setting turned off.
Also, keep in mind. Like the name says, it is War
Emergency Power, it heats up the engine quite a bit if used for long periods of time. And on some planes, you need to be VERY carefull with it as only a few second use can make your engine inoperable.
