not a fan of the wastegate placement, but otherwise looks real nice.

Post some pics of it in the car once you get it bolted up.

What's wrong with the wastegate placement? Doesn't look so bad to me, nice work!

Aside from putting the wastegate on the turbine housing, the location he currently has it placed in is the best one possible on that setup.

The wastegate outlet in that location interrupts flow to the turbine, which will cause lag and later spool. While it is important to ensure adequate flow to the wastegate to avoid boost creep, it is not worth sacrificing a clear flow path to the turbine, unless it has to be there for packaging reasons.

Not trying to be critical of your design, it will work just fine, and the increase in lag and later spool will likely be so minor you won't notice.
