Well, you typically need more boost than what the wastegate allows stock when you add more fuel(a fuel plate/injectors), so that you can burn it more efficiently, and keep EGT's down, so this is why guys plug the wastegate.

So after I get a gsk and plate would it be wise to plug or leave the gate alone?
