External are awesome but the 3" downpipe is not going to mate up to your exhaust. Will need some modification.

Yes mike mentioned that and just the thoight of cutting my exhaust and welding a 3" flange to mate is just Pure Suffering and Agony to my soul :/ but is it possible and what would go for external or just replace exhaust?

Welding a 3'' flange is nothing. Not sure I understand your last comment?

Weld a flange. Easy, simple, and not costly

Mega are you doing your install yourself? You need to let me know if your ever coming into central Texas for a show or something (San Antonio) so we can meet up.

Yesss!! Everyday you learn something and I finally got it right lmao so then I'm fine with my Exhaust setup that I have in my Signature its all Non-Resd with the .84 internal no need to change to external or would there be a liability on boost creep still? Reason I ask is I rather have room for safety than having trouble down the road

Go with external wastegate. my boost gauge was reading 8.8 PSI while the internal wastegate spring was 7 PSI.

1.8 PSI of boost creep is a lot if you ask me. Im not so sure if going with .86 housing will eliminate the boost creep or will just minimize it (which is still not good)

So just to be in safe side. go with external wastegate. you will have better boost response, better flow, more power, and last but not least, it will extend the life of turbo.

Yes you heard me right it will extend the life of turbo and will give better power and more power.

Please watch this video to learn more about external and internal

Yep. Other than cost, external is always better.
