Another wastegate related question

Seems im not having any luck

i should have started this post that same day i posted this originally, but guys i need help..

My question with this would be

OK if you plug up the wastegate, HOW DO YOU KNOW, you are not producing more boost than the stock 35 turbo can handle? I peg my 30PSI boost gauge oh so quickly that i dont like to keep it there too long, since my egts are post turbo as soon as they hit 950-1000 i lay off the throttle..

I have thought about plugging the wastegate, but is the proper amount of boost supposed to be known? i cannot afford a new turbo, nor do i know where my turbo is currently wastegated at.. I know the first step here is to upgrade my gauges.

what is the easiest way to set a wastegate on a 12V? adjustable elbow? if so someone please explain.. and how does it install?

Tx

Buy a turbo master, you can adjust it to virtually anything you want. Your stock wastegate arm has some adjustment on it, but I am not sure what it will do for you?? sorry
