Default wategate

if I'm not mistaking and memory serves me right, which lately has not, the TT has an internal wastegate....has anyone here by any chance or need put an external wastegate on theirs? Could that be done or would the turbo have to be swapped as well in this case...

Default you'd have to immobilize the internal wasegate, then....

somehow put an external one on the cast manifold...whose design isn't really set-up for one.
