Hi

I've already got another post on this subject.
But a few comments they may help.
(I am commenting on an external wastegate)
On my set up, the wastegate pipe goes into the exhaust just after the turbo and at right angles.
Now to me, the wastegate is pushing in pressurized exhaust pulses into the flow from the turbo.
I would think that moving the entry of the wastegate pipe well away would help increase performance, by not disrupting the turbo exhaust flow.
So I would think a screamer pipe would be a good idea and don't see why it couldn't have it's own silencer to control the noise.
I don't know if this would upset the lambda sensor readings, but on my project, it doesn't have one.
