Default Turbosmart WG, any good?

Hey guys ive just got a quick question for anyone that has used a turbosmart WG. Is the quality good? Do you like yours? How long have you used it for?

on a side note, does the turbosmart 38mm gate have the same flange as the tial 38mm?

thanks fellas.

I have been using Turbo Smart stuff for about 6 months now. I have been very happy with them on my personal car as well as on customer cars. We have been using them in turbo kits and other projects with zero problems.

The new style gate is very sexy.

i have been using Turbosmart Progates for about 2 years now on my hotrod car. i cannot complain at all. they dont leak, hold steady boost, fairly simple to work with (v bands are nice) the price was fairly decent as well.

The Aussies did a good job with the Turbosmart wastegates. Been using them since 2002 on occasion. I'll be honest, I'm a little more partial to them than the Synapses. (Not trying to start anything.)
