Is it simply a case of locking the Wastegate fully open???
Ive got a severe Misfire, but running it off load on Axle stands its fine through to redline.
I want to roadtest it now with no boost...
Is it possible?

Disconnect the actuator rod so the wastegate opens at the slightest hint of boost but if I rememebr correctly it'll just fart and won't rev past about 3k.

just unclip the thing... there should be an e-clip to undo then itll pop off the wastegate (the actuator rod that is)
the wastegate will stay open itself as the gases will push it open... no need to hold it open manually...
youll be lucky to see 1-2psi even all the way up to the redline like that...
ps the car will be VERY slow

Thanks fella's.
I had posted in the Technical Section about the problem ive got, and received lots of things to try. One of which was the question 'Does it do it off boost'
And it doesn't.... so thought i'd see what happened if i ran it up (Axle stands) to get to the problem rev area, then if it started misfiring i could then start checking various things...
But it didn't misfire...
Thanks fella's i'll have to try a road test now...

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...

Might be wrong, but it wont do any harm

Disconnecting the actuator for the duration of the test is the easiest and most predictable way..
