you can use a ball valve on the wasegate line to restrict the flow of air to make the wastegate open later. you dont want to shut it 100% cause then you will overspeed your turbo

corrrect me if im wrong but turbo overspeed can cause huge destruction like metal chunks flying everywhere especially into your engine :booo:

Yeah...overspeeding a turbo is not good. Eventually, it will explode.
