External Waste Gate
Hey Guys, How do I go about putting a External waste gate on a stock turbo (vf39).
What company offers these parts and about how much would it be. Would it be an advantage to have an external waste gate than a stock one? Thanx

same thing as an internal wastegate. you either have one or the other. If you're asking what the purpose of a is (internal or external) then here ya go. More info than I could type in an hour.

i read something about a guy on nabisco who put an ewg on his td04. The tuner said it was probably the funnest stock turbo'd wrx he'd driven. Let me see if i can find the link.
I thought about this too but I thought i'd just wait until i mess with the turbo. And with the wg welded shut it would probably be a little harder to sell it.

for mechanically locking the IWG shut, you'd have to fab up a bracket to hold the IWG shut.
