i keep asking the same questions since i have the stock wastegate also

the ones around my area keep seeing the 10-11 psi on stock wastegates, ,some other people say 8-10 psi

my engine can handle it, i just wanna be sure

The stock wastegate on 14b should open at 11.4 psi. But what is your setup cause 14b is not a huge turbo so you might be alright with that boost.
