so when you turn the car on the wastegate comes open? If this is the case then no that is not right. Your wastegate should only be open when it reaches the spring rate or whatever boost level you have it set to on your boost controller. I would look at how you have the wastegate hooked up.

Almost sounds as if there isnt a spring in the diaphragm.

Is the valve seat in place?

or vaccum sucking from top probably it has to be that. disconnect the hoses and chek it out if not then make sure that wastegate has the ring on if is one of those

yeah you need the valve seat, it keeps the wastegate from leaking at the flange
