YAh that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

So how does it creep on 21psi, but not 14? That defies the laws of physics.

Glad your understanding of the systems on a turbo car are about as bad as your understanding of the physics behind them.

No, less boost is harder to control, since then more exhaust must flow through the WG and bypass the turbocharger.

Nah, it's a pretty common misconception since it defies your initial thought on how it works.
