Default Clearance for ext WG

Any of you guys know if there would be enough hood clearance if I were to mount one of those Tial knockoff ext wastegates to the top of my HF manifold where the hole for the O2 sensor is? I don't know how big the WG is, so I have no idea. It would be going in my 93 Civic with a D series.

It will fit if not you'll just need to grind down a bit of the underside skeleton of hood

I've seen some pics of someone doing it but the welding was pretty at all. If I had an hf mani I'd try to use an internal gate instead.

Why is that?
