Subject: [BC-BFLegacyWorks] Re: Turbo(wastegate)

If your car is idling, standing still, and you rev the car up, you're
not creating that much boost because the engine isn't under
load. If your wastegate wasn't working, you'd overboost to 13PSI,
and you'd know if you were hitting 13PSI.

Besides the sound of the turbo, which you should be able to
hear, a boost gauge is the best way to find out what your turbo is
doing.
