Rtek and boost controller, is porting my wastegate still needed?
I am putting the rtek 1.7 chip on my 1987 TII. I also have an electronic boost controller that i have yet to install. I have full 3" exhaust and a k&n filter. Will i still need to port my wastegate? I am looking to run around 8psi for the street and 12psi at the track.

Yes, you will still need to do a port on the stock wastgate.
I run 10-12 psi with an AVC-R. I was getting boost creep with just a straight through 3" exhaust. Now I see none after porting.
Either port now or rebuild later.
