Purge welding is a MUST. After all the pipes are proper the will be taken off the flange and one end will be capped. The other end will be capped with a special cap that alows my purge line in. If you don't it will crack and break as a best case scenerio. If you don't purge weld, then it leave a ton of oxidixed particles on the inside that will end up in the turbo. Probably killing it.
