So I must have missed it, but is there a GB on the adapters as well? My stock wastegate has pretty much let go, and if the price is right I would like to buy it's replacement while the car is sitting for the winter.....
Everybody talks about getting in on the WG + adapters, but I never saw anybody mention that there actually was a GB on adapters, or what the pricing would be.
Also, would whoever is running the GB's consider shipping to the far north (i.e. Canada)??

I've given this more thougth and given the complexity of what's gone on in this thread with people asking questions or suggesting there are better deals out there, I just don't have the time to deal with this right now. If someone else wants to organize a group buy I would be more than happy to put them in touch with my friend to place the order and nail down prices, but I have a feeling this will be a bit too much for me to bite off at this point with as many other things as I have going on.
I apologize to those who have expressed interest, despite having the best of intentions perhaps I overextended myself a bit at the moment.

So, if I understand correctly, if we get 20 people it is $200 for the WG, $90 for the adapters + shipping on each?
That isn't a bad deal.
Would this all fit fine on a 87 turbo with the 2 piece crossover? (i.e. are there different adapters for the 1 and 2 piece crossovers?)
I have trouble getting the factory wastegate to fit in there sometimes which is why I am asking.
It would be nice to get pics of all of the pieces in here together, and a list of what else would be needed to install this.

Zero, yes, my understanding is that I should be able to get the .38 wastegates with the spring for $200 plus shipping on each unit. I looked through the thread today and only saw 5-6 people who seemed to be interested which is part of the reason I decided to drop this for now. We would have to have people order the adapters from Speedforce directly rather than through me, but I could collect the money and order the wastegates and then facilitate shipping to each member if there are enough people to make it work.

Same here. I'm actually wondering if I should get a 1.2-bar spring setup. Comes to about 17.4 psi. With that plus my EBC I should be able to pin that pressure right where I want it across the entire RPM band.
I'm still really partial to the 46mm wastegates since the construction looks SO much better, but I guess I can start with a 38mm and see if it does what I want it to.

Jeff, I don't have a problem with trying to get other products besides the .38 if there are enough people for the order, but I would assume the .46mm WG may run a bit more with the 1.2-bar spring.

Jeff,
I sent my friend an email to inquire about the F38, F41, and F46 wastegates with springs ranging from .70-1.0 bar and for the F46 1.0-1.2 bar springs. Once I hear back from him I will let you know.

Okay, I received an email reply from him a little bit ago. Here's what the pricing would look like:
38mm wastegate with .70 bar spring will be $210 plus shipping.
38mm wastegate with 1.00 bar spring will be $222 plus shipping (1.0 bar spring is an additional $12)
46mm wastegate would be around $470 plus shipping. I think that would include the 1.20 bar spring you inquired about Jeff.
Hope this helps guys.
