Default external wastegate???

I have a wastegate question. If u cut off the wastegate actuator signal wouldnt exhaust pressure alone force the valve open.Also If u had say a 9 pound spring in the wastegate, how high would the boost go without any actuator signal.

I don't know about internal gates, but my external gate would boost the motor into self destruct mode if the gate was not hooked up.
