You won't be able to use either safely at 16 psi.

You need a standalone.

There area lot of things you "can" do but it's not a good solution. The FMU isn't really necessary with an AFC and large injectors, but since the AFC doesn't have a CLUE if you're boosting or not, if you tune it right under boost, you'll be REALLY rich if you're not boosting.

Another fringe benefit of the AFC - at part throttle, since it bungles your MAP signal to the ECU, you can be running 3-4 psi of boost and the ECU will never leave closed loop mode! All the detonation you ever wanted and more!!!
