Jon how about a vacuum modulated switch like a secondary on a carb. The more boost it sees it triggers a switch and turns on the pump.
Thats my best guess off the top of my head. A vacuum modulated switch

+1 for a Hobbs switch, you can manually adjust the psi activation on it. And i believe ATP carries them in the bay.

You can use a hobbs switch to activate the meth pump at a certain boost level.
