Wastegate Needed?

If i have a dp, mp, and cat-back, do i need an uprgaded wastegate if im using the stock twin turbos? What if im using the M2 twin turbos..?
I understand theres a lot more to the picture like an upgraded ecu and so on.... But i just want to know about the wategate.

Are you asking if you should port your wastegates? I have never heard of an "upgrade" for the stock wastegates. Not that you would need to put a bigger actuator on there or anything, just port it out.

You should port the wastegate because "most" people get boost creep and spikes with a mp and stock wastegate. Upgraded wastegates are more for single turbo applications. I am in the middle of trying to port mine right now and the biggest help has been Van, thanks bro!
