Tial, precision, or synapse?

So looking at wastegates. Im debating between a tial MVR 44mm, precision 46mm or synapse 50mm. There all within a few bucks of each other. Just looking for some opinions of guys that have ran them. And this will be with a larger BW turbo. I wont be running less than 15-18psi at any givin point so im thinking the 44mm would probly do it but just looking for opinions. Thanks

I just finished up my S475 build and went with dual MVS 38mm and I love them. To me TiAL's craftsmanship is unbeatable and there a proven setup time and time again. Not to mention the 38s are extremely compact which is nice when you dont have a lot of room to work with like when doing dual gates. The now standard water cooling on these is really cool also. TiAL FTW!

i'd get one of the ones you have listed simply because of the vband hookup. the 4 bolt hks,greddy etc are kind of a pain

Yea I guess I didnt think of that. Its definitely going to be vband. The new exhaust will be all vbands also.

nearly everyone i race with uses tial and have never heard a word of bad quality or any faults. they are the best. recently i've been hearing of precision WG's being as good as tial. but haven't seen any use of them on the track to say if they work or not.
if space is limited then tial is for you, they have the most compact WG's by a long shot.
the 60mm is a beast, i had to try a couple different set ups to make it fit. 50mm is a good size but dual 38 will out flow a 60mm but they take some creativity to plumb them back to the downpipe. screamer pipes are easy.

All of them will work fine. The synapse is a little more confusing to route boost control because it has a few extra ports on it but it works well.

My Synapse has held my HX40's boost down to 9 psi without any creep at all. Now I just need to get my pos ebc to work so I can crank it up.

I am a big fan of TiAL, we run the 44mm on our 13b-re with a GT35R and the 60mm on our 20B with the GT4202R, both have performed flawlessly since day one. Also run their BOVs on both cars.

I have a Tial 46mm but I really like the Precision 46mm http://www.aptuning.net/Precision_46...0wastegate.htm $300 and it comes with all the springs you would really ever need. Not a bad deal. Would love to hear some feed back from someone that has had experience with the Precision wastegate.

I find it hard to believe that the company who makes the best turbos on the market has knock off wastegates without some form of proof.
