unhook your charge piping, throw a filter on the throttle body, open your wastegate and call it a day

make sure!!!!! you unhook the wg dude. not the vac line to the wg but let it flap around n open so it wont over spool its self.

the turbo is in the way of your exhaust flow right now mang... ----... that ---- will run bad, and if you drive around with it too long, it can fuckup your engine.

I have been told to just unhook and WIRE up the WG and that leaving the turbo spool without charge piping and pressure (I forget exactly) isn't exactly good to do.
