Wastegate Question 200 1983

This is the first turbocharged vehicle I have owned. My question is how can you tell when the wastegate opens and dumps excess exhaust? Does it open right before the boost gauge goes into the red? Can you actually feel a diffence it when it happens? Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.
