I agree..I also have 8 or 10 sensors laying around my place that need special voltages, special circuit requirements, and other odds and ends that make connecting them an engineering feat.
IF it already had some means of reading the shaft speed, you only need a simple counter circuit and a little math. I see a pulse, start counting in micro seconds. I see another pulse stop counting. Look up how many micro seconds = shaft speed.
Computers are good at that.
NOW - what is my throttle position, what WAS my throttle position - did it increase or decrease.
What is my current boost, what was my boost - did it increase or decrease....
Etc, etc,etc,etc.
Not impossible, but.....
As far as the Ford goes, the turbo is a parallel turbo and both sides are vnt. IF they're not synced - poof.
And that's the same thing that'll happen if you try a vnt as the primary turbo in a twin setup and don't have the variables close to right.

I think you need to start with minimum boost - say 10 to 15 psi. Get good control under most conditions. Then up your boost slowly and again check the control. Slowly increasing the boost until you can reach the 40 - 45 psi you want.
Then you can start adding W/M, etc.to complicate matters again..
Honestly - sound like fun to me....But I've been told I have a weird sense of humor.:rof:rof:rof
