I was very fortunate when I purchase mine. I was able to grab the set for $170 (manifold+DISAs) shipped with few expenses on the vent hose and was very lucky to obtain one of two new DISA valves for free. Almost 3 years now and engine running without a hitch with the used DISA. I know where you're coming from as $ was an issue but as well as reliability. Find one , see if its in good condition if not buy new valves.
