Wastegate stuck closed, P0234 code, No check eng light... Will it hurt turbo?

Will it hurt the turbo to run it like this?

Should I get a boost fooler so it does not defuel?

Will it hurt anything with/without a boost fooler?

Thanks guys!

Well, your sig does not tell us if you have any mods or not. I can tell you that I run a moderate fueling box along with having my wastegate completely clamped off and I have zero issues. I DO have a box that boost fools though.
As far as a boost fooler, if you are getting codes then you will need some type of boost fooler.

Thanks for the reply. Truck is stock. I would have listed mod's with the other information in my sig, but the truck is stock except for exhaust.

Some say it will hurt turbo, most say it won't. Rather than put another turbo on it, I am thinking of just getting a boost fooler.
