Just vent it to air...

And how far is the garage? You essentially have no boost control, it'll have the ability to overboost to the point somthing goes pop

Just leave the std one one on and drive off boost,it will take your mapper 5 mins to fit before the remap.I drove 83 miles to have my car mapped,and just connected a pipe to the wastegate & compressor housing to avoid car overboosting.

It depends if you have upgraded the turbo or not, if you are having your oe turbo mapped then fine . If you have fitted a bigger turbo then just take your time and give it some after the ecu has been set up to take the turbo imho.
