Post wastegate suggestions w/ guru chip

since shimming the wastegate is a pita i was just wondering what would be a good drop in (dont feel like getting out the welder) wastegate that would support the chip mod....and further mods down the road.

I'm using the Lindsey Racing dual port wastegate. Well built and direct factory replacement. No welding needed.

The Tial 46mm is an excellent bulletproof wastegate - I would go with that, its essentially the best you can get.

Other than cost and slight weight disadvantages, are there any negatives in having a wastegate larger than what is required?

Has anyone with a 40mm Tial wastegate on a 951 experienced any issues that would necessitate a larger wastegate?
