Default Wastegate

I am sure some of you have done a little research on this but I wanted to get your opinions on this new wastegate that won at SEMA
Best New Performance-Racing Product Synapse Engineering Inc. Synchronic Wastegate

Here is a link to a video of the person from Synapse explaining it vs. a "standard" wastegate.

So if you take a look at it if you don’t know what I’m talking about and tell other people here if you think this is really revolutionary or just a different design that has very little benefits.
Thanks guys

It's simple, but unique... another take on the very old pneumatic wastegate design, I just wonder about how reliable it will be over time.

I like how he said "The diaphragm is not a very reliable form of birth control, why use it in your wastegate"

hahaha, he must have been thinking about that one for a while.

do the tial WG use diaphrams? and is this "issue" this company brings up with the driaphrams WGs use really that relevant. Also I think the msrp on these WGs is about 250.
