external wastegate instead of internal, screamer pipe is just the name given to the pipe exhausting the gases when its not diverted back in to the exhaust system.
The penny wastegate insde a turbo is usually very small and a massive restriction, external wastegate = much less restriction, also controls boost creep :D

thanks gentlemen.. no point in one unless you run big boost with a big turbo then?

does the internal wastegate really hold them back that much?
