Ported Wastegate

I'm going to swap my current crap turbo with a hybrid, but I was wondering if I need a ported wastegate, and who can do it for me? Is it possible someone on the board can port the wg for me? Thanks guys.

Also, will a S5 wg work on a S4?

Do it yourself.
It's a couple bolts and then just a matter of getting a grinder and some bits.

A S5 whole turbo and manifold will fit on but you can't put a S5 WG on a S4 turbo but I don't think you mean that.

I have never seen a S4 hybrid turbo. Not saying it dosen't exist......cuz it easily could, I just never seen it.

If you get a S5 hybrid then you will need the s5 manifilold and vice versa...

If the turbine is S5 you will not need to enlarge the wastegate because it is much larger than S4 by utilizing two holes.

The S4 and S5 Actuator internally are the same but the rod is shaped different between the models also the S4 is shorter than the S5.
