Controlling Boost with a Flash ECU?

[D.I.P.]

Ok so i have been out of the 3/S game for awhile and came back to find out we now have FLash ECU capabilities. I have been researching this but am a bit confused about how the Flash ECU controls Boost. I am going to be picking one of these setups but need to know the best way to go for Boost control. I don't have the stock BCS anymore what are my best options without having to use a standalone Boost Controller? Are there specific aftermarket Solenoids that can be used? Im going for maximum driveability with the car so the idea of have an OEM type application for tunning is very appealing to me.

Get a stock boost selenoid from someone parting a car.

Contact one of the suppliers or Greg.....they'll get you squared away.

Stock boost solenoid wont work with upgraded turbos. You need a 3-port.

Our boost controler works exactly like the EVO.

Have there been any further developments in this department? I would like to ditch my MBC and step up to ECU controlled boost. I read the link provided above, what is the hardware that's needed?

[Greg E]

Here is my setup installed. The harness has been modified to use the FPR solenoid as the boost solenoid. More info to come on this later.

oh nice! Please post details as soon as you can, I'd like to make the jump as soon as I can

Should I begin to source a factory FPR Solenoid? Were they available on all years? Only from TT's? thanks

[Greg E]

Only in TTs but they were available in all years. Get the harness for it too.

Another quick question...is there a limit to how much(or how little) boost can be run with this setup thus far? I'm not looking to run wg boost. I'm currently running 22lbs and want full control over the boost curve and would like to run as much as 25-27lbs...please advise.
