does a deltagate have a fire ring?

i bought a "new" deltagate from someone on here. But it doesnt have a fire ring? Is it supposed to.. every other wastegate ive seen has had one. The piston looks really small too, the outlet is 38mm but the piston diameter is probably half that. No wonder its a creep-o-netics.

deltagates dont have a fire ring. also they only creep/spike if you have a shtty wg location.

ive used a few and so have a few other of my freinds with zero issue

Mine was rock solid, no creep or spiking. I just used a 38mm gasket from ebay.
