D16A6 + HF manifold + 14B + no waste gate, what psi?
 
If I were to run the set up I describe in the title, what would be a good guess on how much boost I would get?
I am planing on not having the waste gate actuate and see what psi I get. I would like to know before I build a waste gate down pipe.
Thanks

if u dont run a wg actuator the wg will just flop open and u wont have any boost spring it closed and keep it that way ull make enough boost to toast that motor U MUST USE SOME FORM OF WG ACTUATION

What do you mean "not have the wastegate actuate"? you mean block it off so you get full boost? If so, I hope you have some strong rods/pistons and a sleeved/posted/block guarded block because you'll probably hit over 20 psi and blow your engine up. Lots of DSM guys are running 20-25 lbs off their 14b so it'll handle that.

If you take it really easy and don't run hard it might be ok, but I wouldn't risk it. What's the point again?
