DO NOT EVEN LOOK AT THE STOCK GAUGE IT LIES...

dont, that wastegate sticks open without the springs and i dont want you to kill the motor from it going lean.

no, i think you should leave it alone.... if a standard NA engine is complicated for you, then a turbo is just going to be rocket science for you.
