Ok i saw a topic a while ago that asked is it safe to just run a wastegate with no boost controller or boost gauge.

im running short on funds for this and i would be happy just running 6psi (tial .45bar wastegate, thanks viren) untill i can afford good gauges and a profec b

so is it safe to boost?

 

at least get a boost gauge, $60 at most i believe.

 

I would atleast get a boost gauge. I found one at a local v8 shop for 35 bucks. I'm running a boost controller but I'm just running of thw wg cause Idon't wanna go over 5 psi until I upgrade the fuel.

 

At least get a boost gauge...

 

dont the cheap ones that work on vacuum kinda suck tho?
like the longer the tube the less accurate it is?

 

you're right on that one. My wg spring is 5.5 and my boost gauge reads close to 6.

 

I got mine for 12 dollars, its just boost but works really good?

 

you should atleast get a boost gauge . you could find a used one for like $20 if you search around . never know if the wastegate is gonna spike or not .
