Looking forTrick Wastegate
Stock unit works fine but looks like something out of a WWII german tank. Anyone aware of an aesthetic unit like Hargett's shifter is aesthetic. Thanks, Wayne

The Tial isn't such a bad price when you compare it to Porsche parts prices.
..and the origonal wastegate is beautiful... it looks just like the one's they used on the 935's back in the day, and it's origonal which means alot to some folks.

The factory lines don't fit. You'll have to make up some fittings to make it work. The Tial does come with two banjo fittings that are barbed. You can get some 1/4 ID fuel injection line to a fitting on your IC to make it work. The top fitting on the WG is a vent and goes to atmosphere.

that is why wastegates have two fittings , i know on most 930's or those without an EBC , the second line is not used soo .. i thought i would try to explain .
wastegates are essentially universal , if you want the easy way out , you can use the Tial piece and pay , or you can get a hacksaw and find somebody with a welder and fit whatever knock-off 50$ wastegate you want off ebay , another perk is that you can easily find one with v-band flanges wich are sweet . if i didnt happen to have come across a new wastegate diaphragm , i myself would take the latter .

I got the same one off e bay also, it's a tial knock off. for 80$ but it was only available with a 5psi spring so I spent another 30$ on a tial spring and it works prefectly, while I had it apart I looked it over good it's very well constructed and the parts are interchangeable with tial components. which makes me wonder how much longer is tial going to get away with charging $500.00 for a waste gate that should go for about 80 dollars no cutting of any piping was required it is an exact copy. probably made in the same factory as the tial, sort of like the several brands of headers that go for different prices but are all identical.
