then you would need a electronic wastegate lol cus waste gates have springs in them set for different boost levels. the ecu cant control boost entirely like that... boost controllers help premature release of the spring on waste gates. boost controllers can also turn down boost, but cant turn it up above what you spring is set at. so yea, there would be two waste gates, because one would be controlled by an accuator, which yeah would be part of the ecu.

A boost controller is for turning boost up. If you have a 10psi spring in your wastegate and you want 15psi you turn your boost controller up. By doing so you are restricting vacuum to the WG, when this happens it allows you to make 15psi. you can never turn down the boost lowwer than what the wastegate is.
Hope this helps

no man he didnt let me take more
but i am in the process of asking him soon times
ill post some more pics of my brothers civic very shortly its almost done.. this one is also gonna be something to see
