Don't push down too hard on the right pedal.

even with the wastegate fully open its still going to boost 1 or 2 psi. your only way to get COMPLETELY no boost is to disconnect the pipe going to the TB and just put a K&N there, thast your only realy way to have NO boost.

Just take it easy an watch your boost gauge, boost comes on according to how much throttle you give it.......................

I wouldn't disconnect the charge pipe while the turbo is still bolted on the car. This will cause the turbo to overspin and it may be damaged. I say take out the w/g spring for extra safety but just be easy on the gas.

i say you boost it while you break it in, pressure seats the rings, more pressure, better seat.
that's how i break in my engines, and thats how many people i know break theirs in.
(usually on the dyno)
