Default Reliable External Wastegates?

Just wanting to know what and how everyone is enjoying or hating their external wastgates... I've searched for a few months trying to find as many as possible and have only come across a few brands. There are Tial, HKS, Turbonetics, and thats all I've found, am I missing a seriously great wastegate?

Rich

Please include current setup, along with impressions.

My buddy runs a pretty serious set-up, and has switched to the TurboSmart 45mm, he has no problems with it. From what I have been seeing TurboSmart is top of the line.

My friend is running the new Turbonetics Evolution wastegate and its runs great. Also another friend is running the Race Gate, and hasn't had problems either. Tial and HKS are good brands too

There are only three well actually four if you can find the last one that I would use. Tial, HKS Racegate, Greddy Type-C or a Lee gate.
