Hi, I know this is a dumb question, and I'm sorry, but I've searched a lot and can't seem to find the answer.

I am going to get my car tuned with a powerFC. It has a T28 and some other mods on a Redtop, swapped into a 1992 240 coupe. It has a greddy type S BOV. I do not have any sort of boost controller. I also do not have the boost controller add-on for the PowerFC.

Here is the question - does the PowerFC control boost thru the stock solenoid or something? If so, will that be good for, say, 15lbs of boost? If it won't be good for that much boost, what is the best way to allow the car to run that much boost when it gets tuned? Adjustable wastegate actuator? Manual / electronic boost controller? I don't need to adjust the boost once its tuned, so that is not an issue.

I want to know what the cheapest way to do this is that will be reliable...im spending a bunch on a tune, dont want the car to blow up!
