the next thing on the mods list would be for me to get a manifold...was wondering what everyone thought of getting it made to fit a external wastegate....(it would be a tial), or just keep the internal wastegate, although they sound amazing would there be any real performance gain or not...(turbo is a t28 sixty trim)...thanks Ryan...

Oh yea if i did that i would be doing the external dump right out the on the end of the front bumper in front of the passenger side front tire...:cheesy:

AFAIK, there's not much benefit unless you have a HUGE turbo

I think that unless you decided to go with a bigger turbo, the external waste gate is not going to get you anything. When I installed the GT30 turbo, I used the external waste gate and custom header. The waste gate is the HKS one. We had to change the position where the waste gate went into the downpipe and we put another O2 bung where the pipe use to go.
