honestly they are two separate parts of the map, i answered this in another thread when someone was asking stuff like this.
basically you should just tune your car for max safe power, and run an electronic boost controller in the car, leave it turned down all the time and when you want turn the boost up,
i dont recommend changing tunes all the time.
once the car is tuned, more specifically a turbo car you can adjust power easily with a boost controller.

yep i also have power settings in the high 4s mid 5s and over 600
good mix for a street car.
i can highly recommend the AEM tru boost electronic controller built into a gauge.
usually around 250-300
live boost gauge with settable peaks and alarms, and 2 duty cycle settings +1(wastegate)

Summary: take one eBay SpyEar thing, add a bosch flat response (aka "Wideband") knock sensor a little wire and a potentiometer and some cheap headphones. Knock becomes much more audible! It's pretty helpful for tuning. I also made and used some of the non-electronic ones too, I can comment on those when I get back home.

I have done this as well. I took a listening device that came with headphones, a spool of wire and soldered the wire to the microphone leads. At the end of the spool of wire I just put a large alligator clamp. Worked excellent. I can take some pics if you can't find it. Think I had $25 in the whole set up. Probably find it under DIY electronic stethoscope.
