Common man!

You know what I mean..You can install an external wastegate, the manifold has an opening for it, doesnt specify diametr, but most likely 38-40 mm.

TSI makes good manifolds, they clear a/c and foot print for t25-t28

External WG option ups the price of the turbo and the kit. TSI offers their turbo & manifold like it is because it is cheaper, and they buy boat loads of the same 2-3 turbos and use them for 90% of their kits.
