What is the primary advantage of the Gen-V Comp-Gate's high-pressure bias design?

The high-pressure bias design actively biases the top chamber of the wastegate. This is crucial for achieving a large boost bandwidth, which is beneficial for applications like drag racing or high-power rally cars where precise boost control across a wide RPM range is needed.

What materials are used in the construction of this wastegate?

The wastegate features a Nitronic 60 valve guide and a high-temperature 347 stainless steel body. It also uses 17/7 PH stainless steel springs, all chosen for their ability to withstand extreme heat and maintain performance under demanding conditions.

Does this wastegate come with everything needed for installation?

The wastegate includes strap-type V-band clamps for attachment. However, as this is a universal component, custom fabrication for exhaust manifold and piping connections will be necessary. It does not include the exhaust manifold or piping itself.

About this part

Product Details

If you're building a high-performance forced induction system that needs precise boost control under demanding conditions, a robust external wastegate is essential. The Turbosmart Gen-V Comp-Gate 45mm is built for those who push the limits, specifically designed for control strategies that actively bias the top chamber with high pressure. This approach is key for achieving large boost bandwidth, making it ideal for applications like CO2 drag racing or compressed air setups in rally cars.

This wastegate is a well-built unit, featuring a Nitronic 60 valve guide and a high-temperature 347 stainless steel body, which are crucial for handling the extreme heat generated by turbocharging. Its modular design allows for actuator interchangeability, giving you flexibility as your build evolves. Turbosmart has validated its flow performance through CFD analysis, ensuring it can manage exhaust gases effectively to maintain your target boost levels. The actuator position is user-adjustable, and the unit offers class-leading thermal performance and fatigue resistance, thanks to its 17/7 PH stainless steel springs and the option for liquid actuator cooling.

Installation is straightforward with the strap-type V-band clamps, making it easier to integrate into your existing exhaust plumbing. This wastegate is a solid option for serious performance builds where consistent and reliable boost control is paramount. Please note that this wastegate is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
