You will need the PFC and Commander. You can adjust the boost with the Commander.

With the Commander you can adjust more than just the boost so it's worth the extra few hundreds. I am going to go play putt putt.

A lot of people buy aftermarket boost controllers BEFORE purchasing the PFC. The PFC CAN control the stock twins for boost. After you go single, it's best that you get the boost control kit and control boost with that.

i'm sure you are a newbie at one time, i don't see what what is the big deal answering some of the newbie, we all can learn something from it i'm sure.

"The PFC CAN control the stock twins for boost. After you go single, it's best that you get the boost control kit and control boost with that" why? explain?

The PFC can control boost with the stock twins. Once you go single, you can get rid of ALL the crap underneath the UIM...or you can do that when you go non-sequential. Either way, go buy the Apexi AVC-R actuator and connect that to where the stock boost controller used to be. Run your vacuum line in, run your vacuum line to your wastegate and now your PFC can control boost. It's better to do it this way. The stock boost controller doesn't seem to be very good.

...and the newbie thing...These types of questions come up quite a bit. You can tell if they're a "newbie" by the types of questions people ask. This is NOT a flame on ignorance. If you don't know...well you don't know...We all have been there before. I didn't know a lot until I got on the forum and started reading and posting. Now I'm at the point where I'm swapping engine's. Not bad for a "newbie"
