A new turbo....PTE's 6870

I doubt you'd have room for the actuator. Honestly, I can't imagine ANY situation where an internally gated turbo is preferable unless it's cost. And that's not a good enough reason to hamstring yourself with an internal.

Perhaps you should do some research on that turbo especially in relation to the the design of the internal gate. I wanted to dismiss the internal waste gate concept as well.

That turbo could be the best thing since sliced bread, but good luck getting a turbo with an internal wastegate actuator and built in bypass valve to fit without replumbing a lot of the kit.
