Re: Which wastegate would u rather have,HKS or Tial (DC2)
Yup, they both handles lots of HP and they both work good. IMO, Get whichever one you find a better price on. Thats why I have an HKS.

Re: Which wastegate would u rather have,HKS or Tial (D-Man)
Tial has Stainless steel housing, HKS uses cast iron housing. Stainless is less prone to crack. But dont get me wrong HKS makes great wastegates, I'm going to be using one on my Corolla. But that is just one thing to consider.

No, you have to get the elbow for the HKS for two things. Hood clearance and mismatched flanges.

hmm, I have a 50 mm HKS wastegate for my Corolla, it's cast iron. The 60 mm one is probably stainless but then you're talking like $500. the cheap HKSs are not stainless.

Why must everyone argue with me, I'm telling you guys, I don't say things out of my ***. Yes that is a speaker magnet hanging from what you say is a stainless steel housing. If you read that link you posted it says nothing about a stainless housing, stainless flange that you weld to the manifold yes, but nothing about the housing being stainless. Case dismissed.......

Well, any wastegate that works as it is supposed to and holds up to the abuse of the heat is good IMO.

HKS over Tial anyway of the week. My rx7's T60-1 glows everyday from the heat and throws flames all day long( for a long *** while) ...that thing is bullet proof

thanks,good info,a little misleading on HKSs part calling it S/S when only the flange is S/S
