you will blow your turbo up if you block the wastegate. get a boost elbow and tune the pump a little bit and you will be able to take the hx35 to or past it efficiency range. DO NOT BLOCK THE GATE LIKE AN IDIOT!!!!!!

X2 ^ Only armatures block their waste gates wanting more boost. But the chances of it blowing up, with out watching a boost gauge for every second, are VERY high.
