It depends on what exhaust you fit, whether you need to port the WG or not.

My VF34 creeps to 1.35 bar.

The thing I can't work out is why you would want to run LESS than 1.35 bar?!

I seem to remember Andy commenting during mapping "your sports cat obviously isn't very restrictive then"

Cheers

Money for the dremel better spent on an open necked downpipe?

Not wanting to go off-topic but I'll be buying myself a VF35/28 after chrimbo and I have a twin dump DP - I thought these were just as good as open neck?

More likely to get boost creep with a twin-dump IMHO - look at how far the penny opens when wastegate is fully opened by actuator. You're likely pumping air into metal, which it has to bounce off before continuing it's path. Increased resistance, increased boost-creep.
