Darn factory ECU won't let me change anything without blocking everything...I want to install a boost controller in the future...I guess I'll have to mod the ECU too. Anyone know what would be my options for this kind of mod?

You don't need to touch the ECU to lower or raise the boost.
You disconnect the 2nd actuator hose and block it off at the engine and at the actuator, then you connect your boost controller between the boost source and the actuator. Never install SAFC on a 3S-GTE, adjustments over just a couple % will make things worse for the factory ECU. It's the worst way to adjust Air/Fuel in a turbocharged application as it does nothing more than fooling the ECU into thinking it's at a different different load point than it really is. This means fuelling changes don't come without ignition changes, usually for the worst. Eg correcting a rich condition may also advance ignition (leaning+advancement can bring on detonation), while correcting a lean condition may retard ignition (richening+retardation will reduce performance). The wastegate is factory sprung to 10psi, The TVSV bleeds off enough air so that up to 14psi will take for the actuator to see 10psi. -------------------- Mike W
