its true to a point. you can ooost lower than the wastegat allows. if its set to 8, your lowest you can go is 8.

You should'nt retard your base timing to avoid detonation. You only want to pull it back when in boost. Otherwise your car will feel like a complete dog on the bottom end, and you bitches complain about low compression making the car feel slow on the bottom end. Fucked spark timing has a much bigger effect on the bottom end than dropping the compression a bit.

No, you cannot lower actuator settings with a boost controler.

a boost controller is made to higher the boost not lower it. If your max box is at 8 psi like a t25 from a gs-t the boost controller will only go higher than 8 psi. Thats why the gs-t is at 12 psi only because of its electronic boost controller.
