Hey guys, just finished my turbo kit and its all running great, one little question, before i go to get it tuned...

Taken it out for a spin after the exhaust was done today, and ive noticed at sorta 4k rpm and WOT it starts making boost, with the wastegate flap not hooked up at all, i.e. no actuator... When i say boost its only about 1-2psi and doesnt rise from there (4k to redline it hovers around 1-2psi and has an audible spool and flutter between gears), but i was under the impression that not actuator = def no boost at all... With the wastegate on it should make boost about 2.5-3k rpm id say...

Its on my x-trail ( basically a 2.5L SR motor - QR25DE) with a VG30DET T3 turbo, and a 2.5" dump and 3" catback. plan to run 7psi straight off the stock actuator.

Anything to worry about or is it sorta normal?
