You have absolute no experience at all, what have you built? All
you do is talk about diesel, propane, and superchargers as if you did, I
really doubt whether you even driven a store bought turbo Volkswagen.
lets see a picture. I've been there!

The sound of the waste gate is what you might hear when the turbo isn't
pushing much air into the engine (such as when shifting, or crawling
along at low speed but relatively high RPM's). So of course I'm not
implying that it would help rock crawling (which I also didn't mention)
or help anything else for that matter; except perhaps my driving
experience as I happen to find that sound pleasing.

Wastegates are used on all sophisticated turbo systems. Some simple
ones don't have them. Boost bleed valves are something different that
USAC had in the Turbo Offy days. They bleed air off the compressor
side, not divert hot gas from the turbine side.
