Re: How do you know when..

Sounds like a boost leak rather than a bad wastegate. If your wastegate is bad it'll either be stuck open, or won't open at all. Then you'll either overboost like crazy or won't boost at all. Since you said you can "hear" air and can't build more than 10psi it sounds like a boost leak.
