Turbosmart WG38 Gen V Ultragate 38 14psi Black External Wastegate
The Turbosmart WG38 Gen V Ultragate 38 14psi Black is a high-flow external wastegate designed for precise boost management in turbocharged setups. It fits universal V-band turbo housings on performance vehicles requiring reliable 14psi control. This wastegate ensures consistent exhaust flow and boost stability under demanding conditions.
Key Features
- Gen V Design: Single-layer 347 stainless steel investment casting boosts thermal efficiency and airflow by up to 60% over prior generations for better response
- Liquid Cooling: Dual M10x1 water ports isolate the actuator from heat extending diaphragm life in high-temperature environments
- Valve and Seat: Nitronic 60 material in valve stem and seat resists wear for long-term reliability in aggressive boost applications
- Diaphragm: Silicone Nomex-reinforced diaphragm handles high pressures without fatigue for consistent performance
- V-Band Clamps: Included stainless steel clamps enable secure quick-fit connections to turbo manifolds and dumps
Product Notes
- Base spring set at 14psi (0.97 bar) with optional springs available separately for boost adjustment
- Black Cerakote finish resists corrosion and high-heat exposure
- Ships complete with fittings banjo bolts gaskets and hardware
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Actuator housing rotates 360 degrees for custom hose routing
- Requires matching V-band flanges on turbo housing and exhaust dump pipe

Forced Induction
Forced induction systems encompass every method of pushing air into an engine at greater than atmospheric pressure, including turbochargers driven by exhaust energy, superchargers driven mechanically by the crankshaft, and prochargers using centrifugal designs belt-driven at higher ratios than traditional roots-type blowers, with each approach delivering a significant increase in air mass per cylinder fill that allows proportionally more fuel to be burned and more power to be produced without increasing engine displacement. Adding 10 PSI of boost pressure to a naturally aspirated engine can increase power output by 50 to 70 percent depending on the engine's breathing efficiency and the quality of the supporting hardware, making forced induction the most power-dense modification available relative to cost and complexity. This collection covers complete forced induction systems, turbocharger and supercharger hardware, intercoolers, blow-off valves, wastegates, and supporting component...
