When people say you can adjust the turbo to run at higher or lower boost, how do you actually do it? Is it simple?

Ultimately, in basic terms.

A turbo would run to a set pressure was achieved, then the wastegate would open and air would bypass the impeller blades. Thus not creating any higher boost.

A controller interferes with this setting, giving scope to have the bypass valve(wastegate) open earlier or later than originally. Creating higher or lower max pressure.
