well usually as long as it spins freely and there's minimal movement it should be fine, its hard to say without out seeing it. what the compressor wheel look like? not discoloured or anything? are the edges smooth?

easiest way to tell if its ball bearing is where you bolt the chra to the turbine housing, 360 degree thrust bearing will have 4 bolts and ball bearing 6 bolts like in the picture. i circled the ones im talking about

i reckon they sound sweet haha cops dont like much tho
plumbing it back tames the noise a fair bit. if your manifolds got the plumbing for it i'd use one it will save you doing it later when you want more power

external waste gates do hold boost better, you wont get more power just because you've got an external gate. turbosmart is a good quality brand so you can count on it lasting
have you been in a car with a screamer pipe when it comes on boost? its not real discreet especially for street use
