You are dead wrong.... the CT-26 uses and internal wastegate. The wastegate actuator is the round metal can with the rod coming out that is mounted to the CT-26.

BOVs do not vent from boost; They vent when the actuator sees vacuum. They are not a device for controlling boost levels.

Cyto, wastegate actuators are generally not cheap. I would start with trying to find a used one to swap in. Have you actually tested the wastegate to see if it is likely that it's sticking?
