The GenV WG50 ProGate50 External Wastegate is a
Motorsport-proven, cost-effective 50mm external wastegate – The Highest Flowing
50mm External Wastegate in the World! The GenV provides extensive user
configurability, world-leading extended thermal performance, fatigue resistance
and best-in-class flow performance for optimum control and longevity.
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, the GenV Range has more features, options and
performance than any other gate.
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.
