Default wastegate

since I'm only planning to run 8 psi or less the internal waste gate should be fine for my setup on a stock b16, with saab t3 turbo,obx manifold, dsm ic, dsm, bov,vortech fmu,walbro intank pump, synapse missing link, xex plugs, and msd six, would I even need the to retard my timing with this setup?

.5-1 degree retard per pound of boost.

also scrap the OBX manifold. or make 2 brackets for it so it doesnt fall apart.

Alot of people on this site use the MSD btm. They also make a Btm 6 or something like that which increases the spark as well.

I have a multi step, not a btm, multi step /3 step, also on that wastegate note I put some dents in my wastegate actuator to make it fit, because I was fitting the setup to the car today, will it still work?
