Gear dependent boost control

For those running tephra, how much boost aka WGDC do you run in 1st and 2nd gear compared to 3rd? I've always tuned the car in third and called it a day, but would like to increase my boost in 1st and 2nd gear since I've switched to using tephra if it's safe to do so.

just do logs. you typically need more wgdc in 1 and 2 since the engine accelerates faster than the turbo spools. then you have 3 rd gear. Then you run less wgdc in 4 and 5 since the engine accelerates slower than the turbo in those two gears, and the increased load can cause overboost.
