Default Power fc Boost readings after AVC-R install

I use a Power FC in my car (MY98) and i have a AVC-R for the boost control.
I have turned off the boost control from the ECU. Is it any way possible to have boost readings on my power fc after the AVC-R installation?

I don't think so, the AVCR and the Power FC are not working like this, they dont interact each other.

Although Boost contol is turned of, the MAP sensor is still active,so you should still be able to get boost readings for the PFC...

The OEM map sensor is not connected. I have removed all the OEM pipework.
Maybe this was my mistake........
