NoDOHC will become famous soon enough
Porting the wastegate when you have the turbo off is always a good idea.

I think that you are talking about the twin scroll actuator (gives you faster boost response) a picture of it would help.

The stiff to spin may be due to lack of oil. if there is no play, you are probably ok.

The recirculating blowoff valve is quiet, while the open one is louder (Pssssht when shifting gears). The open one will dump boost more quickly and is better for higher boost applications.
