Has anybody had problems with one of these or equivalent?

Got one of these fitted but have had massive boost fluctuation recently and am wondering if it's the cause?

Thing is, I like the construction of it over the standard item(sad I know),so don't wanna believe it's the problem

So before I buy a standard unit again, wanted to run it by you guys first

when you fitted it do you check the vac lines etc, you may of disturbed something,

If not put the standard one back on and if the problem disapears then you have your answer

MRP checked all the pipes for me last weekend and they seem good

Unfortunately I binned the original, hence not being able to do the swap back test

Just can't see why else I'd get 16psi in one gear, then by the time it changes it only gives 7psi in the next, by the same token how much can there be to go wrong in a tcv )-:
