questions on upgrading s4 turbo

I was thinking about upgrading my stock s4 turbo which I have done in the past on my other TII which has a mild bridgeport. What the rebuild company did was upgrade the compressor housing and turbine and mated it to the stock exhaust side, I noticed the last time it from suffered boost creep becuase the stock wastegate was too small. Should I have the the wastegate ported out on the exhaust side, or will boost creep not be an issue on a stock motor? If I do do this should I add an F-con to the stock ecu as well, or some type of aid to the stock ecu?

Thanks

yes, you will experience boost creep on stock ports...port the wastegate.
