Moderators a little question please...

Guys I never really thought about this...Kinda curious... Are you able to not boost at all? What I mean is when the turbo is set at 5.5 lbs of boost can you lower it down and not let it boost at all? I was just so bored at looking at the same thread I figured first one to answer this gets a good kick in the armpit!

And if you know the answer to that one can you explain the benefits if there are any to not boosting at all...

Thanks and laters all.

That is a good question. Ever have to take your car into a body shop and was afraid that they would be having their way with your car some nights? This is exactly why I would want to cut off the turbo. I have always wanted for an easy way to do this.

Thermal says, in the post that Jeremy put, that you can set your wastegate to 0 and then use a boost controller from there to set it high or low. Has anyone set their Greddy TD04 with internal wastegate to 0? I didn't know you could do that.
