Porting S5 wastegate

Yes, ive searched, but i didnt really find any detail about porting an S5 wastegate. How much can you take off around the holes? can you just cut out the area inbetween the holes? pics would be helpfull. My setup will be a RB 3" turboback and cold air box, will i get much creep with this if i dont port the wastegate?

if ur on stock ports, then a nice port job (to the edge of the door) will keep your boost levels ~10psi.

Good luck trying to port the primary port by much...really not much their. The smaller one though, you could really take It to a better dimension.
