youll be lucky to see 1-2psi even all the way up to the redline like that...
ps the car will be VERY slow
If you do what divey jim says when you connect the rod backup the penny will have carboned up and will not seal right ,jim strikes again fpmsl
eh??????
so what do you suppose happens when the wastegate opens normally? no carbon? The tiny bit that may accumulate in that time will soon rub off with a bit of preload on the gate...
