external wastegate fitting advice
now ive got an external wastegate fitted..and removed the actuator. what do i do with the internal wastegate that has now been made redundant. as its just flapping about now with no actuator holding it shut/open.
do i just remove the whole flap, leaving the internal wastegate open? as the external one has now taken its duties?
hope ive made sense. its for a t34 turbo on an rst if that helps, cheeRS

if you remove the internial one it will by pass the gasses all the time so the turbo will make very little boost. you need to weld the internial one shut or leave the actuator on and wined it shut

If you weld it you might get problems in future with it cracking. Bet bet to use a piece of threaded rod like already said.
Also if you weld it it might be hard to sell on if you ever need to.
