Default 944 turbo wastegates

What is the best wastegate to buy? I'm planning on modding my car bit by bit, and I want to install the best possible parts for my car in each category.

If you guys have non-stock wastegates installed, let me know a review of how it is.

Currently I am looking at the LR dual port waste gate, tial 38mm wastegate, and the synapse 40mm. Are all three of these dual port?

Thanks Guys

All dual port.. It's all in ease of install at that point.. Being said.. the Tial and synapse are way lighter.
I will never use anything other than Tial.

The MV-S, is only about 3,5 inches tall, 5 ports (2 upper 3 lower for more vacuum hookup options), but it is also V band clamp inlet and outlet.... so you need adapters.... Or some wicked fab skills....

I have the synapse 40mm and it really improved how my turbo spools. I also like how you tune it it for specific applications. seems way more advanced than anything else. I've never used the Tial but everyone i talked to about the synapse is really happy with it.

that being said the synapse is all about how you set it up so buy it from a vendor that does 951 stuff and make sure you discuss setup.
