Wastegate?

Someone in a previous thread suggested I may have a wastegate problem. No codes, but my Quadzilla commander shows me sometimes exceeding 20+psi on the Boost reading; normal, no load, highway 70mph, generally basic stock.

Question: What'sa wastegate (yes, my 1st diesel and 1st "turbo"), and is it fairly straight-forward to replace? ((cheep or major $'s ?))
