seems like hella mods for not knowing much about wastegates.

what's wrong with the internal you've got now? if it creeps, port it.

there's alot more invloved with switching to an external than just installing it.

If thats the case, than you shouldnt be looking into getting an external WG then. All you need is a 34mm flapper, hella ported o2 housing, and a ported ( if not removed) wg passage.

i understood the first time.

i'll ask again. does it creep? has it creeped? are you worried about it creeping?

if the answer is yes to any of these, get it ported by someone who knows what they are doing. ie - road race or FP.

do it right the first time, port it before it goes on the car.
