Hi I currently have the 1.2v and am going turbo here soon was wondering how tuning is going to go I see no boost control feature or custom map sensor. I have no prob not having boost control as I'm getting a electric boost controller is that going to allow me to tune for higher boost than the map can read ? And to read the higher boost couldn't I just use a aem wideband kit with a guage ? Like I said I'm new to this platform with force induction and just want to see if my thought process is right thank you

The factory map sensor is capable of 11PSI, so that's what you'd be able to read up to and tune properly.

So even if I had a external wide band and a boost gauge I would not be able to tune past 11 psi?

External sensors and gauges have nothing to do with the ECU's sensors.
