Pinched Off Wastegate Hose, How Much Boost Should I See?
Im getting to 22-23 with the wastegate hose pinched off.
2 questions really, Ive been told the factory comp defuels at ~22psi. So with that in mind I dont think I would be able to go over 22 ish?
But, Im also told I should be able to hit 30 psi on this truck with the wastegate disabled regardless.
Fueling issue is what one guy tells me, the other says it defuels, therefore cant get over 22psi.
Hopefully someone knows for sure? Id really not want the vp to be toast, but Id rather know to expect it, and get $$ together, than have a surprise 700 miles from home.

Cut the line and stick a bolt in it with a hose clamp youll be fine to 35 Psi , if you do sticks and get your boost up over 35PSi you can drop it down by changing the exhaust housing , or get a new turbo , Personally I dropped Drive Pressures 10 PSI with the ATS intake and Exhaust Manifolds .
A Boost gauge is not a proper reading of turbo performance , your only seeing Pressure.
FWIW i have had over 50 PSI on my stock head 100+ times , it dont sound like a turbo anymore more like a vacuum cleaner
