I highly suggest DV+ because it holds the boost well. The part is cheap but the labor is high since it's not easy to install. Remember to find the good shop to install that part I had a installation issue before and caused some issue. I have similar setup like you do but CTS open Intake, FTP charge/boost/inlet pipes upgrade....

Wish we can figure out the root cause. BTW, my buddy from BMW tech mentioned they have changed couple OEM wastegate under warranty...
