I'm thinking of going with a setup like this

Would anyone here or does anyone know anyone who would be comfortable doing this?
I can't find a decent o2 housing for less than $250 and I dont want to pay that much considering I bought a brand new one from Punishment Racing a couple years ago for only $170. I definitely don't want to drop $500+ on a manifold when my goals really aren't that high right now. So I'd like to just run a setup like this.

Do you need one? Stock internal gate is fine for the most part with porting and a ported 02 housing.

I have something exactly like what you're looking for. Bought it but never got around to using it. According to the email when i bought it, its a 38mm flange. Also looks like it has been tapped for an EGT or something in front of the wastegate. Let me know if you're interested.

First time attaching a picture, hope it loads.

Honestly not really, I just really like external gates. At higher boost I always seem to of had slight creep issues with internals and MBCs. I really like just running externals with the spring pressure at the boost I want. I'd like to eventually run this car at 25psi on E85 just through wastegate springs and figured I'd stick to my old ways.

Yeah shoot me a price, pretty much what I'm aiming for assuming it's a 38!
