I imagine it's the same (lack of) quality as all of the other Megan/Ebay knockoff parts.

I would imagine paying full price for a name brand good waste gate would be a really good idea. It's one of those things you kinda want to work right all the time.

Well sonofabitch, they DO sell wastegates.

I don't know what the quality is like, but since they cost just as much as a proven piece, like a TiAL, I wouldn't even bother.

You're not going to find anyone with any sense who's tried them, because Godspeed is a company whose overwhelming percentage of business is done on Ebay. Ebay parts, in general, are shit. Maybe these wastegates aren't shit, but there's absolutely zero point in even finding out for yourself since they're no cheaper than a TiAL/HKS/Trust/etc piece, which have been proven time and time again to be quality parts.
If these things were, like, $100, then maybe it would be worth it for someone to be a guinea pig and write some sort of review on it.

Most, if not all these ebay wastegates come from two or three companies in china. So, if you seen one, you've seen them all. And I have had one fail. It sucked

i just want to say i appreciate all of yo that reply with an honest positive opinion on questions it just seems like zilvia has so many no it alls that have nothing but smart a$s remarks to peoples questions...not everyone has been on zilvia for 5 + years and not everyone knows as much about cars as others...criticism can go too far sometimes...i feel sorry for those 14-15 year old people just learning about cars that come onto these forums and ask a question and get flamed all to hell for not knowing
