Turbosmart GenV CompGate40 7psi External Wastegate
(Black) TS-0552-1002
The GenV WG40 CompGate40 External Wastegate is a
Motorsport-proven, cost-effective external wastegate – The Highest Flowing
Wastegate of its kind. The GenV provides extensive user configuration,
world-leading extended thermal performance, fatigue resistance and
best-in-class flow performance for optimum control and longevity.
The GenV Range has more features, options and
performance than any other gate. The GenV External Wastegate from Turbosmart
was a ground-up rework of a classic, and the only feature that rolled over from
the Gen4 range was the mounting orientation. CFD optimized and validated
in-house for maximum flow and thermal management.
A direct fit upgrade to all Gen4 Turbosmart
wastegates and feature our unique collar-locking system, variable actuator cap
and base for easy, 360-degree optional routing of reference hoses, strap-type
V-band clamps, optional liquid-cooling provision, 1/8″ NPT reference ports and
are provided with the full range of available springs.

FAQs
What is the first rule of boost control?
Ensure you have an over-boost cut-out. This safety
feature is built into all factory, aftermarket & programmable ECUs. Make
sure it is set at a sensible & reasonable limit. Increasing the boost will
put more load on your engine, and there is another tune-related factory you
must always consider. If in any doubt, speak with a professional
tuner/calibrator.
Can I use this on any turbocharged engine?
External Wastegates are used on vehicles fitted
with turbochargers that do not have an internal wastegate actuator. External
wastegates in most instances are a custom fitted item and require modifications
to the factory exhaust manifold, or a custom / specifically manufactured
manifold to suit an external wastegate.
What is a GenV Wastegate?
A GenV Wastegate is a 5th Generation External
Wastegate from Turbosmart. Turbosmart released the GenV range at the SEMA Show
in 2017 and used several features never before seen on a wastegate including
rotating actuator housing, ceramic isolators, multi-angle machined valve seats
and interchangeable actuator housings.
Do I have to use the liquid cooling ports?
No. The GenV External Wastegate boasts a number of
design features which means it can tolerate higher temperatures for longer than
it’s peers. The liquid cooling is simply there in case you wish to use it, or
are one of the very few who need to.
Why Does the Actuator housing Rotate?
So you can route your reference hoses any way you
like. The GenV external wastegate range is designed with an infinitely
clock-able actuator housing so that the shortest, most convenient, and most
suitable (temperature, etc.) route can be setup for the reference lines.
How do I change the springs?
You will need the locking collar tool supplied in
the box and you will also need to apply physical force down on the top cap of
the actuator. Applying force counteracts the preload applied with these are
assembled in the diaphragm and is a design feature of the product. Attempting
to unlock the collar without this force is likely to damage the collar and
potentially the actuator.
What size are the reference ports?
1/8NPT. Both the liquid cooling and the boost
control reference ports are 1/8NPT. The GenV External Wastegates are delivered
with a full hose tail and blanking fitting kit which will get you going,
however you’re welcome to use adaptors for AN or push lock fittings for more
advanced installs.
This is ‘X’ psi, but I want to run a different
amount of boost than that – Which gate should I get?
The pressure rating in the description of a GenV
external wastegate is the base mechanical pressure and we including all other
springs in the box. You have base mechanical spring options from 3psi up to
26psi. Note however this is just the lowest the gate can be setup for and with
manipulation of the reference signal via a boost controller, you can generally
achieve 2-3X the base pressure.
