internally westegated trubo vs. turbo + external wastegate.
will it make difference? internally westegated turbo is cheaper than buying a turbo and a westegate.

Re: internally westegated trubo vs. turbo + external wastegate. (bearboy80)
higher boost levels and bigger turbos make the difference
internal wastegates are good, but problems come up with bigger turbos and the fact that the little flapper valve cant dump enough gas to regulate the boost. SPIKE BAD
depending on the setup internal wastegate will work fine,
but 800hp hondas running 28 psi external wastegate all the way
some say that external wastegates are more accurate, which yes they can be as long as the placement on the manifold is correct, some manifolds floasting around these days are not exactly prefect. but customs ones from someone like Tinker(on this board) where the wastegate placement is on a part of the manifold where it gets as equal as you can get, gas flow from ALL 4 cylinders is one of the best i have seen.
