Good value
Good quality
Good product but needs some love before install
I took it apart to the inspect and the valve rod needed to be polish because it had some scratches. I used a brillo pad and a drill to do that. Also the little Allen screws were not holding the valve properly so I had to grind them to a cone shape, I used a drill and sand paper to do it. So far it works great. UPDATE!!!!! It started to rattle after 300 miles. The valve came loose. I took it apart again and the little screws that I mention before dont hold the valve properly. I used a grinder the make the groove on the valve deeper. I replace the little allen screws with same thread longer bolts. I used the bench press to hold the valve and the cap straight while i tighten the 3 bolts that hold the valve. I cone the bolts at the tip so it would dig into the valve. I used some locktight too. Its been 2,000 miles and I have no problems now. I will for sure buy this product again for my next turbo project. and I will do all the upgrades again before I install it for sure!!

Seems decent for the money
I've been running a different style eBay wastegate on my other car and it's been working great for over 4 yrs. I disassembled this wastegate to check it out and check for issues. I did find one, the diaphragm was not aligned with the cap so it was smashed funny for about 1" of the perimeter. I was able to reshape it and after applying some silicone grease to it got it to sit correctly and seal. The rest of the unit seems to be decent quality. The valve stem fits the bore pretty well, there is no excess slop. The v bands and clamps that come with it are decent and look like they'll work fine. The threads in the wastegate cap will accept 1/8 npt fittings if you don't want to use the weird banjo style fittings that come with it.

It works
You need to disassemble before use. Check quality control and any pinching on the diaphragm. Aside from that you will need to do trial and error on installation. But, it works great.

Decent, but reviews to know what needs to be done.
Just like everyone else definitely polish the shaft, tighten down set screws and check the diaphragm, it's more than likely pinched.

Decent quality for a Chinese waste gate
Main body is cast aluminum. Head is billet. Valve looks to be stainless. haven't installed mine yet but a friend has and works good with a gfb boost controller. The cheap Chinese turn knob boost controllers are trash fyi.
