Thats true. Something with an internal wastegate would be ****

I'd go with a small turbo but a decent size a/r so you still have a real nice top end

Thanks guys, I'll check into that. How big would and external wastegate be anyway?

Would it mount at the turbine's inlet and bypass exhaust back down stream? could it be mounted remote - away from the turbo and exit out the side of the car?

If I go with a TII turbo with an internal wastegate, will the turbo be much bigger than one without?

Damn, I need to learn more about this stuff. Wait a minute, I have a Turbonetics catalog around here somewhere - I guess I know what I'll be reading tonight.... Where the hell did I put that?
