Default Need Advice: Bleeding Boost w/o over spining the turbo.

Issue is.... My turbo kit will be installed in the next few days, I have to drive from my crib to my tuner which is approx 76 miles away. I am worried about boosting. What is the best way to bleed the boost without overspinning the turbo? If I take the spring out of the gate that will let out all the boost correct? But inturn will that overspin the turbine?

One of my friends can burn me a map that is super rich so incase i tap into boost I have a ton of fuel... What is my best bet?

with external wastegate, take the spring out and you won't go past 0psi.

I understand that, but the engine will still be spinning the turbine. I don't want to overspin the turbo.

How can you over spin the turbo if it's not building any boost sicne the wastegate is wide open? think about it.
