External waste gate

At low boost levels the internal wastegate doesn't open enough and may cause boost creep

At higher boost levels the internal wastegate opens too soon and is not as efficient as external

If venting to atmosphere using a screamer, you will probably fail most drive by sound tests

Thx Banny,

Thats exactly what i wanted to hear, external is better in your eyes.

The way ahead is external for me.

Cheers. :thumb:

Engine is in the car, just needs the fuel and intercooler pipes sorting. Looking to keep everything tidy and simple, hope to have some more pics soon :)
