Both. It's on the driver to feather the gas to keep from spinning the tires. The issue is that it's not linear. With moderate throttle, my car will hook up in second until I see more than a few psi, when the tires break loose again. It's kinda unnerving. It would be far easier to have the boost controller set boost in first at wastegate level, a few psi over wastegate in second and full boost in all other gears. Maybe back boost down in sixth to reduce stress on the engine since it's not really used for spirited driving. And a boost controller that allows boost by gear is a hell of a lot cheaper than a recelogic setup.
