When I rebuilt my turbo with high flow outlet, RR 4/4 wheel, 360 bearing kit, etc... I decided on the Turbo Master from DS for a couple of reasons.
1. I liked the way it looked.
2. I liked the fact that I could very easily change the threshold of boost and the gate being actuated.
3. I was removing the red and green tubes from the spider anyway, so the vacuum actuated controllers would leave an open port.
Your turbo looks like it will fit the standard wastegate controller, but your best bet is to contact the manufacturer as I am only looking at pictures online and comparing the mounting points.
In the end, it was pricey but it works very well and looks good. I set it at ~30 PSI with a little adjusting and it has been performing great ever since.

Thanks Sous.
Appreciate the response.
I'll definitely get in touch with the manufacturers to check before buying.
Is there some type of plate/plugs I should get to replace the spot for the vacuum lines if I got his route? I assume that crimping or plugging them would have the same effect but I dont want it to look like crap either.
This is just my thoughts on eBay parts, but the only parts I get from fleabay are non critical parts and seeing as every thing is critical in these trucks.....that means none, all the other pieces are from Autozone or similar, the mirrors are the only piece I got from fleabay and so far I have been lucky with them, and I may still go the OEM route with the mirrors...

I hear you
I've gotten many good results from ebay. It depends on the product and the vendor. Remember, ebay doesn't make anything, LOL.
Do you know anyone who has tried it?
As far as critical, the worst case would be won't hold closed or won't open. Neither would damage anything
I went with the TM also. Also had to install a boost fooler to keep from defueling. I love the boost I have now, it pulls hills towing better than it ever did b4.

You'll be surprise at how much good stuff I bought at eBay that hasn't failed for the fleet at work, the only stuff I find IfY are electrical non OEM parts.
Adjusting the length of the arm will change the amount of pre-load on the spring, and that in turn will change the opening and closing of the wastegate, depending upin the exhaust pressure and intake boost level. For the OEM one anyway, is there a spec for how long the arm should be, and is there a guide on what the range is?
