Tial vs Turbosmart

Does anyone have any opinion on Tial vs Turbosmart Wastegates? The Tial is 46 mm and the Turbosmart is 45 mm. The Tial is made of Inconnel and the Turbosmart is made of 253MA SS. The Tial is about $455 and the turbosmart sells for about $520. If anyone has any experience or comments I would like to hear what you have to say.

Turbo smart seem to work well on cars down here, Tail has a good name, i dont think you could go wrong with either.

If given the coice I would go Tial or HKS "racing" over Turbo Smart.

They are both more compact and are better made, I have herd of a few problems with the TurboSmart WG mainly quality control related, some have leaked around the shaft area.
