Internal wastegate turbos are easier to install due to less piping to make up. External wastegates are actually better because you can size them up better to your setup (different flapper sizes), but it's more piping that has to be made up.
A good read for you that will make things make sense: http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbob...o_tech101.html

If it's on the turbo, that's your wastegate actuator. The BOV is actually on the intake piping.

That's just turbo tech 101, just wait till you get to 102 and 103! I never made it past 102, or even finished it. Massive headache!
