seperate wastgate dump on a stock turbo/wastegat set-up?, possible? Options

[CelicaB]

First off im kinda hesitant to ask this question, knowing the easiest and cheepest way is to just leave it alone, but anyways:

I have a stock ct20 turbo, and the wastegate is obvously still internal, dumping right next to the turbo housing back into the exaust flow. I was just wondering if there was any way to dump the wastegate flow out seperatly straight down? I know the shape of the wastegate and turbo exaust "port" would probaly be the reason I should just do a de-cat and leave it, but as long as its apart and I have to buy parts I was just wondering.

also, how do you know if you have a steel ct20b, or ceramic ct20b? not having mine apart yet I dont know the shape, but on the steel ct20b it looks like you may be able to seprate the flow with a flange that is shaped right. My turbo is from a 99 st205 if it makes a difference.

hey thanks for the fast replies and links, I need to register for MR2OC so Ill check that out later.

boost creep was actually on the back of my mind as i was thinking about running a full 3" exahust, no cats, just a canister in the back. this is a track car, so noise isn't an issue. (of course up to the 103 dB limit or what ever it is now)
