Electronic External Wastegates
In 2019 Turbosmart released their SEMA award-winning electronic wastegate (eWG) & this year, we continue to build on that success, expanding the range to include both the CompGate40 – 40mm variant and the ProGate50 – 50mm variant.
The eWG electronic external wastegate range is built on the award-winning GenV external wastegate architecture, which is truly modular, allowing interchangeable actuator housings between all body sizes & full 360-degree rotatable housings for limitless mounting hose & wire routing.
The control strategy is shared across the entire GenV eWG range, requiring an H-Bridge control output most commonly used for electronic throttle bodies & include a valve position sensor & onboard temperature sensor for data logging and safety strategies.
The inclusion of the 40mm & 50mm variants finalises the line-up of electronically controlled wastegates from 40mm to 60mm, ensuring no job is too big or small; the eWG range can’t help. Designed, tested and validated to 1300 degree C drive temperatures & leveraging the class-leading flow, thermal performance and fatigue resistance of the GenV range, you can be confident these will be with you in the winner’s circle!

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The Turbosmart eWG range works with the modular housings of the Gen-V products, so wherever your Turbosmart Gen-V products are fitted, the eWG will bolt on as they use the same mounting & flange orientation. The Actuator housings of the new eWG range are different, so you’ll need to make sure there is room for the new design in your engine bay.
72mm per second – Full travel can be achieved in 290ms. Fast.
Just the one option: None. The Turbosmart eWG is fully adjustable without the need for springs. It can actuate boost against extreme levels of backpressure and does so without any springs. Nothing to change, ever. It also features a unique ‘zero-back-drive’ to bolster its ability against high drive pressures further.
Yes, you can – In fact, it’s one of the situations that the eWG would be ideal for. You will not need the external compressed gas tank, the lines or the solenoid – You need the eWG.
You will need a programmable ECU (Engine Control Unit). You will need a ‘high current’ output and a spare analogue input for a position (minimum) to make it work. Most quality ECU’s can drive the gate for accurate boost control using well under 20 Amp in current – Most applications are likely to use less than 14 Amp. However, less sophisticated boost control strategies may see high peak demands under high load (closing against high drive pressure). Best speak to your specialist or calibrator about your needs if you have any questions on what is needed.
Yes. The modular design of the GenV Range of External Wastegates means you can rotate the actuator housing 360 degrees for virtually unlimited orientation.
The Turbosmart eWG Range all have six wires – That covers two wires for the Electronic Motor, to be driven via an H-Bridge outlet. The remaining cover the Onboard hi-resolution position sensor and onboard controller temperature sensor.
Here is a handy self-help guide to helping you with your Turbosmart install and answers to some of the most frequently asked questions we get here. Turbosmart recommends that you get your products fitted and tuned by a qualified technician. If you choose to install the product yourself, ensure you have all the necessary tools and technical knowledge to perform this task.
