I was wondering about that. I know an external gate has two references, one to open it and another to use to hold it closed for higher psi. Can that be done on an Internal gate? Or is it pretty much what ever the spring pressure is and a reference line to open it? I mean sure you could limit the amount of pressure to the reference line but it would seem to me that high drive pressure may force it open.

Not just the amount of ports. But being able to get in there and swap springs out.

Air/water allow for colder air temps for race application.
Can see below ambient air temps even at hi boost pressures.
Can yield the same daily driver results as air/air.
But the overall cost of a solid air/water kit is more expensive then air/air.

I hope you mean you can see below ambient air temps with ice in the intercooler reservoir... I'd only recommend A2W for heavy race usage, to be honest. Water takes longer to heat up in the coolant circuit, but also takes longer to release the heat.
