Downpipe / Wastegate
Wastegate
A bypass valve (waste / regulator) allows the turbo system to develop peak charge-air pressure for maximum engine boost response while eliminating the chance of excessive manifold pressure (overboost) at high speed.
The wastegate is precisely calibrated and opens to direct some exhaust gas flow around the turbine wheel. This limit shaft speed which in turn control boost pressure.
