Right, about spring rate, of course that would make it different. Just trying to get an idea of, say stock US spring of 0.5 bar or so, what my boost would be limited at. I know the wastegate is supposed to be operated with the control line in place, but exhaust backpressure will crack it open at some point.

I think it depends a lot on your setup..
How big your WG is, how much backpressure your turbo makes where, Your VE, etc..
The 931 has a very big WG, so extremely high boost with no line attached I think..
I don't know, have never tried it, but I don't think their is any end in reasonable sight.. _________________ 80 Turbo - Slightly Modified |

Based on my experience with a popped of boost control line i dont think you will ever experience the point where the WG self opens, RIP stock engine
If you measure or calculate the spring rate of the WG spring its not that hard to make a fairly good calculation of the needed back pressure based on that and the WG valve area. But it will probably end up in a very big number. _________________ 1980 924 Turbo
