Take the internal gate off the turbo, weld up the flange on the hot side, I managed to weld mine to a bit of stainless steel that was on the hot side. Then your going to need a manifold with an external wastegate flange

Easy stuff :)

you can buy block off flanges which bolt straight upto the exhaust housing of the turbo, effectively closing the flapper.
You'll need to re-weld your existing downpipe to the new flange.

and as LVNIT said, you'll need a manifold with external gate flange.
