As far as i'm aware you need to do one of the following:

1)Have the ecu chipped to remove the fuel cut.

2) have the whole engine re-mappad and chipped with an after market chip.

To be honest though, without a fair bit of work, a stock engine won't take more than 14psi for very long without failure. So unless you're running a well built engin,e turn the boost down, and stick to the factory limits.

Simply fitting some form of boost control will only induce the fuel cut if boost is increased. It tricks the wastegate NOT the ecu which is what ultimately cuts the fuel.
