Not sure how the wastegate can cause stumbling... When does this happen? Is it while you are under boost?

YOU DONT NEED IT PUT IT ONTO ONE OF THE CLAMP STUDS you will get 7 to 8 more pounds of total boost and better mileage as well. hooked up i was 17 to 18 total boost unhooked total boost is at 23 to 26 depending on humudity and air temp. seems to have more boost when humidity is high and the lower the air temp the more boost you will get too.
