Lemme start off by saying that this is pretty damn cool. Good job on the work so far.

I am not a fan of overly large wastegates. Here's why... In theory of course, but I would rather be safe than sorry in this case.
whether you have a large wastegate or small wastegate, they still open at the same speed. And that speed is quick. When you hit your set PSI and your overly large wastegate opens, it releases a large amount of exhaust pressure quickly. Most of the time TOO quickly. Causing exhaust pressure drop and possibly a drop in boost momentarily slamming it shut again only to open quickly again. You might not notice this, but I'm sure the motor does.

Instead of guessing, I would datalog it. MAP and EMAP as well as WG duty. If you're running any sort of ems or electronic boost controler, you sould be able to tune it out.
