Waste gate is for over boost.

If you got a boost gauge your good to go.

Our turbos will sing well up to 30 PSI.
They don't like much over that.

He was asking how the turbo works without a waste gate.

Everyone always talks about waste gates in the movies like it's something "necessary" or "cool."
And on a ricer, it is necessary. hahahahaha.

Exhaust gases go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens, and you go faster. lol jk

Your turbo is ran off of your exhaust, or any turbo for that fact. A waste gate has nothing to do with building boost. A waste gate releases your boost once you let off.
