Oh, I see, sorry got a little confused. Well I don't know much about hydrofoils, I'm usually more concerned about keeping the boat in the water.
But as tower boy said, you displace the weight in the boat, about 40% up front 60% near the back, but it all depends on each boat. You'll have to experiment a little bit with moving the weight around the boat, to find the right wake shape.
Is it a sterndrive (aka I/O)? mess around with the Trim. Put it all the way down, then bring is up slightly, and play with it until you find something you like.
for the first little while, its just a matter of experimentation
