Out of curiosity...Boost controller on V12tt??
Is anyone running with a boost controller either manual or electronic on their v12tt setup? I am under the impression that the ecu does not control the wastegates, but I could be totally wrong. Anyone have any info or insight along these lines? Is the boost adjustable with a C4 Star DAS?

I'm not sure that you'd want to do that. As far as I know, the wastegates are electronically controlled, and the ecu does a pretty nice job of pulling boost/timing with IAT, coolant temps, etc. I know some pretty fancy boost controllers exist, but there is no evidence to show that the stock system operates poorly.
I don't think you can raise boost through Star.
