What is the primary function of an external wastegate like the Turbosmart WG50?

An external wastegate's main job is to control boost pressure in a turbocharged engine. It diverts exhaust gas away from the turbocharger's turbine wheel, preventing it from spinning too fast and creating excessive boost.

What makes the Gen V Pro-Gate 50 stand out from other wastegates?

The Gen V Pro-Gate 50 is noted for its high-flowing design, validated by CFD and bench testing. It also uses advanced materials like Nitronic 60 and 347 stainless steel for improved heat resistance and longevity, along with a robust spring design.

Does this wastegate come with everything needed for installation?

The Turbosmart WG50 Gen V Pro-Gate 50 includes the wastegate unit with a 14psi spring and V-band clamps. However, custom exhaust fabrication, including V-band flanges and plumbing, is typically required for installation, and these items are sold separately.

About this part

Product Details

The Turbosmart WG50 Gen V Pro-Gate 50 is a 50mm external wastegate designed for serious performance applications. It's built to manage boost pressure precisely, ensuring your turbocharged engine operates within its optimal range. This wastegate is a motorsport-proven component, recognized for its high flow capabilities, which is crucial for controlling turbocharger speed and preventing overboost. The 14psi spring setting is a common choice for many performance builds, offering a solid foundation for boost control.

What sets the Gen V apart is its advanced design and materials. It features a Nitronic 60 valve guide and a high-temperature 347 stainless steel body, which are selected for their ability to withstand extreme heat and resist wear over time. The actuator housing is rotatable and clockable, giving you flexibility during installation to route plumbing effectively. Turbosmart has also focused on thermal performance and fatigue resistance, using 17-7 PH stainless steel springs that maintain their tension under demanding conditions. For those pushing the limits, optional liquid actuator cooling is available, further enhancing its ability to perform reliably under sustained high heat.

This wastegate uses strap-type V-band clamps for a secure and leak-free connection to your exhaust system, and its 50mm V-band fitment makes it compatible with a wide range of aftermarket exhaust setups. While this wastegate offers exceptional performance, please note it is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. It's a well-built component for those looking to fine-tune their turbo system's boost control.
