Wastegate

The wastegate is involved in the release of pressure from the turbo.

Porting the Wastegate

Porting the wastegate involves boring out the wastegate hole so that it is larger and can therefore release more pressure more quickly. This can be important to prevent overboost when a large bore exhaust has been fitted.
