I'm gonna be having my own line of BOV's and MAYBE wastegates....
Would anybody be interested? I'm designing BOV's right now and see how that goes first. Everything will be CNC'd....I'm gonna throw 'em out cheap just because of the fact that inflation SUCKS. I will be giving a few sets away to try out if anybody is interested.
You guys think I should dabble in Wastegates too? I'm currently trying to design my own **** now that I have access to a CNC shop that's not afraid to do anything

I'll let you know this beforehand though....I suck at CAD, this is my first time using teh CAD and my CNC guy is helping me along the way to develop my CAD skills

get a multiple flange setup seriously. This will be a HUGE asset. Im doing this with my cast manifolds, and its just another reason to purchase the manifold...because you can upgrade WGs if you want, or if you already have one, its no biggie to swap the different flange on, and whoalah!

I'm thinking about that, but I was also thinking of having maybe a 55mm inlet and discharge also....
I am putting a lot of consideration before the final assemblies are made for testing
I'm really considering the greddy style flange due to the fact that a lot of people run the greddy, vortech, or HKS racing from a premade kit or bought from other place. But I will make adapters also.
A race version will also be made that will need testing too...

adapters 
genious thought. You should make adapters for the HKS ssq clamp flange so you can swap on a greddy or ect. Have different BOV's for different ocassions !

the new turbonetics looked like a real quality wastegate. when you get it done definitely post some pics/videos/stories/reviews. id definitely love to try one. id pay you for it. are you gonna manufacture your own springs to regulate boost or use premade ones???

Make a really quiet one for us guys with black FMIC and stock looking cars. My BOV always gives me away.
