Tial wategate
My stock wastegate is "toast". I need a new wg and it seems that Tial is the way to go.
Is this the correct one? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Tial-...Q5fAccessories
Anyone has experience with the seller?
Other sources for Tial wg?
Thanks.

Tial F46 is what you want, and what appears to be in the ebay auction you listed. A couple of points to consider: Do ask them to substitute the .8 bar spring for the .6 that comes with the auction (unless you want to run lower boost, that is). Also, check out Tial Motorsports http://www.tialsport.com/prod_wg_46.htm to learn all you can, such as the two different body styles
"The Tial WG 46 is offered in two different body configurations.
Standard body with the full diameter heat sink fins.
Narrow Body for the 1975 -1994 911 Turbo"
I missed that fine point when I bought a Tial from eBay and ended up having to grind off a small amount of the cooling fin material to get the WG to fit my '87. No big deal, but I could have avoided the grinding had I got the narrow body.
Great wastegates, and you can pick up a great condition used one for about half the price of new. Do you know for sure your stock WG is toast? Maybe just needs a diaphram?

Thanks Mark,
My WG has several pin holes in the housing due to corrosion so I guess a new Tial WG is the way to go.
