A newer wastegate design
This is pretty cool. I've never really though about wastegate tech before.

"a diafram doesnt work very well for birth control i dont know why youd want it in your race car"
this type of pneumatic regualtion has been around forever. suprised it took this long to be incorperated into a wastgate.
on a side note.. anyone here play paintball? this vid brought back some sweet memories.

there seems to be more friction in the synchronic design and his point about the floppy diafram giving no support WTF? that isn't the diaframs job it's the guides job

My wastegate spring on the Greddy was defective 
Wouldn't hold boost past 6.5 psi. Even though I had 2 different boost controllers tried with it. Had to order a new one, and they acknowledged that the initial batches (some) springs were weak. They put on stronger springs in batches after that.
