Yes,the WG can uses boost to push it open. With that unhooked the your car will make as much boost as the turbo can physically put out.

Go the safe route. The old skool way was good back then, but now we have the ablity to push these cars father and alot more safer. Cal, +40s, 3Bar MAP, AFPR, good 2.50" or larger exhaust, and wideband! 
The plus to these is a cleaner look, more reliable setup, Plus if you ever get to a point you want to go back to stock those parts hold a pretty good re-sell value.

be careful and watch your A/F (and get EGT too, or buy a wideband) otherwise zener+20 psi = melted pistons

Go with FWD-P or TU parts for performance once ago ~ much safer for good performance and more reliable!

It's true!! My stock boost control system failed me on my first turbo and I didn't have a boost gauge at the time. It overspun and flat out broke. Now I have a boost gauge and running 11 psi with a G-valve. Much safer and my turbo loves me

You will damage your pistons if you start running big boost without the right setup. Get that hose back on there.
