Default what external waste gate to buy

ok, I have a t25 with an internal wg, but my flapper is getting stuck open a little causing it to not get full boost in 1st gear until 5000-5000rpms, kinda sucks, so I thought about welding it shut and putting a external one on. I need one to be at a resonalbe price...AKA..cheap, but not too cheap that it doesn't work right. what do you suggest looking for?
I saw this..any good? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33742

all wastegates stay open. I think you might be going external for the ricer effect.....

I'm a total ricer, but that's not why I want to get an external one, my turbo takes for EVER to spool up, its almost like not even having a trubo until about 4500rpms really doesn't do much for street racing if you know what mean

all external wastegates are going to vent into the atmosphere unless you put a flange off the wastegate and run a dumptube back into the exhaust.

Personally I think it sounds like complete ------- open wastegate, I'll say it again, "it sounds like wet lesbian ----- farts" Yes on any car.

Tial's new 44mm Vband wastegate seems to be the hot unit right now, but I'm sure the 38mm will suite you just fine.
