Cool varaible boost controller

i was looking at a turbo kit and it said that you could get 18 psi with a variable boost controler, now i asked around and not many people know what that is, anyone has any idea what it is and were can i find one?
before any of you guys say it, i have already checked FAQ

Re: varaible boost controller

A variable boost controller means you can have two settings. Why would that make a difference unless they meant something else.

Re: varaible boost controller

so in other words the wastegate is sprung to 8psi and with a boost controller you can raise it.
