Well, you could easily get 300+ out of the stock turbo. If your looking for a good reliable setup that will give you easily 350whp (not worth the upgrade unless your getting 350whp IMO) I would say Deadbolt 20G with all supporting mods of course. Internal wastegate, no reason for external unless your going BIG.

You could, but it does not make sense to go thru the added expense & trouble when you will gain nothing from it. If you plan on making big HP, then it makes sense b/c the internal gates only go so far.
I have an SZ49 making 400WHP with the internal gate & am very happy with the results.
