There's nothing wrong with a Deltagate, I ran one for almost 3 years, no issues, the dude I sold it to is running it with no issues. The main thing you have to realize is that you have to size your gate to your application, the Deltagate is only something like 25mm, so it's a small valve. Of course if will cause creep if you use it on the wrong application. Check the Turbonetics website for application specs, if it's too small, go with one of their bigger gates, then just get the spring you need for your boost level.

If you are running a big turbo and low boost, go with a bigger wastegate valve to avoid boost creep.

I did about 250 with a Deltagate with no creep even with a Drag manifold. Ran a MBC off the turbine housing and never had a problem other than the occasional 1-2 psi spike when very cold on first boost.
