Default confused, question about WG size.

people seem to be buying larger wastegates for more boost. but how would that make a difference. with more boost the wg is closed longer. you need a bigger wg with a bigger engine that puts out more exhaust, because more exhaust needs to be taken out before teh turbo. if anything you would need a bigger wastegate with less boost.

right?

...or go large for a dual purpose engine. High boost track and low boost street. My theory at least.
