Default Boost controller

I've looked (search button isn't getting showing anything) and I can't quite get anything on how these are installed, I know how the wastegate works with springs, but I'm going to run the Tullos Tech boost controller (killer price!) What will I need to connect this to my wastegate. This is my first HMT setup but I've read extensively, just I've never really seen much base touched on running electronic boost controllers. Thanks!

Ok I reread from one source I have "G2IC" and later in it, it kind of tells you, so what I'm wondering is if I get a turbo with an internal wastegate, can I still use that even if I run 12 psi of boost, I'm guessing my answer is I'd get boost creep right? And that being said could I basically open the wastegate escape port bigger IE drilling it wider or something . I was planning on just using an external wastegate anyway, since I don't know if the turbo I get will even have an internal Wastegate. Thanks!

Yes you can use a MBC on an internally gated turbo, why wouldn't you be able to? Here's a diagram on how to hook it up. I hook mine off the charge piping personally, instead of tee-ing into the bov line like this pic shows, but this works.

Ok which is same way for doing a EBC. Now my real concern is if an internal wastegate is able to bleed off boost fast enough, cause this is going to be a 4 psi maybe daily driver with a 12+ psi track dial in. We're in the thoughts of doing a T3 Super 60 or T3/04. Thank you for the quick response
