The other settings refer to the duty cycle the boost control solenoid needs to run at to achieve the target of 1.1bar.
I think the HKS one works in %.
So set to 50% and see what boost you get,then adjust up or down until the desired boost is achieved.
Set it in 3rd or 4th gear, not 2nd. As you will achieve higher boost in the taller gears.

If you let me know the model number I'll dig out a manual and maybe able to ellaborate more.
