Default As much as I hate to break this to you.....

your turbo is so large that the added weight is gonna put you right back to stock performance numbers=P

Man, I can't wait to see the finished product. Looks promising so far. Best of luck!

Do you know the nominal and peak flow rate (lbm/min or grams/sec) for this turbo?

Default I don't think an external wastegate is worth the added expense/complexity....

for what little gain it's worth, if any.
