True I have heard that saying but if nobody is talking than what Am I listening to? Also I ask questions about things that I can only find close ended answers to. This forums is a search button for me but the answers come more quickly and they are more effecient than the BS that Google can lead you to sometime! I'm not trying to start any problems and I really didn't need that little 2 cents that you added... Like I said before we were al noobs at one point and time at something, and we all had to learn a little more about it before we wasted time and energy on it making us look stupid, thats what I'm trying to avoid. :happyfing
When no one is talking, there are two possible reasons: A. No one has ever thought about the topic. B. It's already been discussed at length, and the topic has a decided answer. Since there is already a wastegate flange on your manifold, and there is no wastegate on your turbo...the topic is closed, yes, you need one.
This forum is not a "search button", this forum is for discusion. When a question has a definitive answer, there is no more need to discuss it. That's when you search...whether it's here, Google, or (God-forbid) a bookstore.
Search Google for "what does a wastegate do?" The first Google link is a "non-BS" answer on the need for a wastegate. Here, I'll help you

If learning about the basics of boost is a waste of time, or you're just too busy...maybe the Honda/Acura camp has something more suited to your needs.
About the two cents, the little middle-finger smilie is about five cents...while you give me the finger, I'll stand to the side and laugh as your engine explodes under unlimited boost because you didn't take the time to read.
I'm not usually the type to be a dick, but, there is a reason I have such a low-post count. I spend the majority of my time reading. I hate to bust someones balls, but when it's obvious that they were too lazy to look on their own...it pisses me off because it gives all noobs a bad rep.
