Has anyone tried this wastegate actuator?

MAMBA Adjustable Turbo Wastegate Actuator For MAZDA RX-7 RX7 13B S4 S5 HT18S-2S | eBay


saw this on ebay, it looks decent not sure how it would operate or if anyone has had experience with it. i have a s4 turbo and my wastegate looks pretty beat up. Suppose i can bench test my original one and see if its working properly.

Check out my latest vlog, I bench tested my wastegate actuator with a bicycle pump lol. A little janky but it works if you don't have access to a compressor of some sorts.
