Wastegate questions

I'll be installing my turbotech kit in the next two weeks. Since the guy I bought the kit from is taking his time sending me the wastegate(its been 2months), I'm probably going to just buy a new wastegate. Should I just buy another deltagate, or are there better ones that will bolt right up? Any thoughts?

Get the Racegate by Turbonetics. It will flow much more than the deltagate. You can find them on ebay from time to time. Or, if you're really bored, you can look on the Stang and Buick boards.

George at Turbotech hooked me up on an Innovative progate, works really nicely. It will not fit the stock flanges however.

I have a Deltagate that I used for only a couple months that is in perfect condition. I will take $150 plus shipping. Email me at eger62@hotmail.com if interested. Also, precision has a new wastegate for up to 600hp for $279. It will bolt up to the deltagate flanges. It looks like a nice wastegate. Check them out at www.precisionte.com

I personally run the Innovative wastegates on my car. After seeing the quallity i would do it again as well. What turbo do you have? Another good option is the Standard HKS wastegate as it is fairly cheap and works well.

The mini gate should be fine. Its the new one from Innovative it is smaller than the pro which is fairly large.
The second choice i would have if in your position

Believe Jz 1500 had a wastegate forsale. I would do some looking on the supra boards, and the gn boards in their used parts sections though.
Other choice would be a racegate which can be had for 200 roughly used.

thanks guys, i really appreciate your input. It looks like the guy I bought the kit from finally sent the wastegate, so I'll just use that for now. I keep the others in mind if I have problems with the deltagate.
