Doing a bit of thinking about firewall foward. Leaning towards the 914.

I hear tales of the wastegate getting stuck. I have a few questions on this 
matter:

Is TCP still avialable?

Would TCP help or hinder the wastegate staying clean if using 100LL?

I heard that if you regularily clean the wastegate without removing it with 
brake
cleaner it will keep it free as long as you
do it often and don't wait for it to stick?

Is there any other product to help keepwastegate  free  that anyone is using?

Is it possable to disassemble a 2 to 300 hour turbo without breaking off the 
studs?
What is secret to disassembe without
breaking studs?

I plan on using MoGas when staying local, but when you wander away from home it
can be hard to find.

Thx
