1. try to maintain X psi of boost
if boost > X, open vanes unless fully opened
if boost < X, close unless fully closed
2. if exhaust pressure too high, open vanes even if boost < X
3. if egt too high, fully open vanes, sound alarm
For optimal fuel economy, and if you have gobs of free time, the ideal thing to do would be to calculate engine load and only generate enough boost needed for that load. That would require LOTS of tuning though.
Sounding the alarm is a good idea, but if you reduce boost, the EGTs will go up since there is less air mass to cool off the injected fuel. The ALDA will cut back the fuel some when the boost goes away, but if the pump is that modified, it will still probably have EGTs that are too high.
I'm really really lucky... at work we have these AWESOME scopes:
