will my ct-26 blow if I don't turn down boost?

hi, i'm new to the forum and modding my supra...I recently shimmed my wastegate (link form supra_girl I believe) with 4 washers, that gives me about 9psi...but yesterday I installed a complete turbo-back 3 inch. exhaust and removed the cat. I heard that going with a "straight pipe" setup your boost will increase automatically do to less restriction, is this true??

right now I don't have and "accurate" boost gauge so I don't want to break my turbo...

any help would be great, thanks.
