I'd say IF you dont know DONT do it as there's more to be done than just turning up the boost by the actuator!

pressure type(ball and spring) manual boost controler is a better idea

you can regulate boost very fast and easy, and what is important boost rise faster, so car can be faster even on standart boost, it give more torque at low rpm
