Unless you can some up with some custom software that can model and predict boost from your turbo on your engine, I think you're going to have to have MAP or MAF.
Don't know about ECT, though, but EGT might be helpful.

Does hybrid alpha-n work on the microsquirt? Thats what I am going to use when I get around to turboing my project bike?

Yes it does work on microsquirt - same code as regular MS-II. You can use alpha mode at low rpm and MAP at high rpm - or vice versa if you wanted, and it blends the two in between. But I wouldn't run pure alphaN with no map sensor with a turbo - I would want something to tell the processor what the boost was.

i think the blending sounds good.-
