Tim @ Speed Force Racing sells the Tial 38mm Wastegate with adapter plates for $299 for rennlist members.
Tial is No.1 for 'Bank for buck'.

If your stock wg is in good condition, then just change spring or shim the existing one.
Save the money and upgrade your turbo. A properly sized turbo running within it's efficieny range will generate much lower backpressure, combine this with a stiffer or shimmed spring a you will hold boost much better.
Except for spring stiffness there is nothing wrong with the stock wg.
Yeah, the Tial looks better and has dual ports. But since it's under the car and very few people runs both ports it doesn't matter.

What are your plans for the car? If its increased boost and you want to control it, a dual port tial is the way to go. You can't beat one especially with a good EBC.(apexi or profec). It's a good stepping stone if you have lots of HP mods coming.

I have a deltagate that I will be selling shortly for $220 shipped that has the correct adaptor plates. The deltagate is very similar to the Tial, they are both dual port.

I wouldn't be so sure very few use both ports...??
Yes I'm sure that many people connect both ports but with a single solenoid or an MBC you could us a single port wg as well.

My tial is fantastic with the MBC.
BUT, I do get minor voltage fluctuations (up-down-up) on the map datalog as the revs rise. I am going to datalog the difference soon with a modern EBC to see concrete proof of whether or not the MBC is retarding boost at all.
