ok, i know most of the turbos on our idis are about 8psi with a max of 10.. but my turbo is considerably bigger than a banks, its around the s400 size andi am afraid of getting too much boost. ( i can already hear turbine whine around 1500rpm in P and N) so i want to protect myself and set it so it cant go over 14 or 15 psi.. i know normally a wastegate is done to do this..but while at work i was looking at some of our well accessories (im a plumbing dept manager at lowes) and saw we carry one for 75 psi.. that got me thinking.. so i searched and found one that was 15psi preset 35ish bucks).. now would this work for what i want to do, in theory it should do the same thing correct? or do i really just need to get a wastegate?
if i have to get a wastegate, where would i install it? (intake, exhaust, etc etc)
and yes i know putting a turbo the size of a s400 is crazy in itself..
