SSautochrome sucks, wastegate diaphragm broken
 
Well we all know ssautoshit products suck, but despite all the negative publicity I did buy a wastgate. They were supposed to be the only 'quality' product they sell...

But after a good 4000 miles the diaphragm gave away... two days before a major sprint even in Belgium (www.kingofeurope.net, i'm number 302 ;D ). Luckily Yannick is willing to borrow me his wastegate.

Anyway, be warned, no ssauto product is any good. Never again for me.

when i saw the pics of josh's busted one, i took mine apart and saw that the diaphragm was folded over because it was not assembled properly. it may have worked for a little while, but it surely would have broken. i reassembled it correctly and haven't had any problems so far. i'll keep my fingers crossed. :P

yea i`ve seen a few of them where the "lip" of the diapragm was not seated correctly.
I guess if you had it fixed at the first place it would hold up fine.
