one end connects to the Turbo, the other to the Actuator.

You will need a boost gauge to setup the boost, even if it comes pre-set from the previous user, it may see a different level on your car, depending on the Turbo, and mods you may or may not have.

These are very good. I use the Dawes device, and the one offered here is a nicer looking version, they are Accurate, and you should not have any problems using them.

I have my own Business and i specialize in Subaru, and i fit Manual boost controllers such as these all the time.

As long as the boost level is kept within the limit of the ECU, then you should not have any issues.

I do not advise running in conjunction with a FCD, as the temptation of a little more boost is always their, and the Fuel cut limit is their to prevent boost going above the levels the ecu has been mapped to.
When you try running more boost than the ECU has been mapped for you run into problems.
