It's best to run some form of engine management rather than 'pulling the hose'.

i'm running a deadbolt monster TD04, and i haven't heard of anyone 'just pulling the hoses to run 17psi.' 100 octane isn't the magic cure all solution for bad or no tuning. running 17psi without the proper air/fuel mixture isn't good for your motor no matter what gas you're running.

I think it would be more than 17 psi. Disconnecting the waste gate line would yield some crazy boost spikes.

You would probably blow something up if you ran with out a waste gate.

Yeah, without proper management you'll see boost spikes...IMO any change to a turbo should be done w/ proper management
