Before making this decision, you should consider that you would have to remove the OTA from the fork mount. While this is apparently pretty easy, it seems to be very difficult to get the OTA back into the forks and properly aligned, should you wish to do so at a later date. There was a thread on this a week or so ago, I think.
Are you looking to do prime focus photography through the SCT? If it's only for piggybacking (either a wide angle camera or perhaps with a small scope like an ED80) then I think many people are happy to use the wedge.
I've certainly used a wedge in the past with a Celestron C8 and got decent tracking.
I'm sure there will be others with more first-hand experience of these things that will offer useful tips.
