Maybe if this was on a larger displacement motor it would build boost but on a 2 liter low compression motor there's no way it's going to make 7-8 psi with the flapper wide open.

Oh yea, I've taken university physics 2. It's apart of the degree program to be a geologist.
Good lord, can you read? I didn't say he would make 7psi, I said he wouldn't make more than that - meaning i'd expect a couple psi of boost at the most, maybe a spike to 5 or 6.

It depends a lot on his exhaust setup. Have you ever run with the wastegate unhooked?

Please, tell me what about it would be unsafe?
