only blows out hot air when you reached your desired boost level, for whatever u have it set for. Ex if u have a 8lb spring and no boost controller, it'll open once you see those 8lbs and keep it at 8 and be constantly blowing out the exhaust while you are boosting those 8 lbs. understand? and i really can't see anything in that picture

looks like an SSautochrome brace goin on there. def to close to the coupler, it will melt pretty much instantly.

You need to take a better/more clear picture. I can't really see what's going on in that one.

But like ICeDoUt said, the wastegate opens up once you reach your desired boost level and lets all that exhaust out through the dumptube. And yes, it will get HOT.

Yeah it should be fine. Not a big deal anyway, only risk is a burnt/melted coupler and a boost leak.

I consider the dumptube like a temporary second downpipe. I wouldn't put a coupler on my downpipe, like someone else said it'll melt pretty much instantly.
