Where the hell are you expecting to get an external wastegate that's working for $30? If you find one for that let me know because I'll buy 10 at that price lol.

I was just checking. and the 30 bucks is just a low nomber means nothing. And I said "prefer" name brand, some people would get rid of one cheap. But I might go cheap wastegate since it shouldn't matter as it shouldn't see boost since I have a EBC right?

Yeah I paid $68 shipped i believe for one. Its going on a car that will see limited miles and is not a race car so I dont need anything fancy. Plus its new, most knock off i saw that were used went for $40-50. Ill pay the extra $20 for new.

Sounds great I'll just buy a new knock off. Thanks all. I shouldn't have a problem unless it leaks even when it doesn't see boost. I don't know if it can or not, but I'd assume it can even if the EBC hides the boost.

I bought mine on ebay from SSautochrome. If you do the same, make sure to open it up and make sure that the wg spring is the correct one, I bought one that was supposed to have a 3.63 psi spring in it, but when i opened it, there was a 15psi (big red) spring in there!! :o I emailed them and they sent me not only the 3.63 psi spring, but also a 5.6 psi spring really quick.
I have to say thier customer service is second to none.(really)
