Description
Designed to improve boost control
The WGA is a high performance internal wastegate actuator designed to improve boost control on internally wastegated turbos. By using a significantly larger diaphragm area than the OEM actuator, the WGA has more control authority over the wastegate flap, meaning exhaust backpressure cannot override the flap position as easily, resulting in more stable and reliable boost control.
Supplied with 3 springs and a unique turnbuckle pre-load adjustment, the base boost pressure can be configured and adjusted from 5psi to 24psi for the best possible boost control.
The WGA features a longer stroke, shorter height, and more adjustment than its rivals.
WGA part # 7304 is designed to bolt on to Subaru WRX models from MY97-07 with the factory TD04 turbo. The 5psi and 7psi springs are installed for a base pressure of 12psi, and the 10psi spring is included in the packaging for further tuning options.
Please note that whilst this is a physical “bolt-on” product, it should be considered a tuning tool as it WILL increase boost pressure and therefore TUNING IS REQUIRED.
MASSIVE PERFORMANCE, COMPACT SIZE
It’s what we like to do here at GFB – maximize performance and minimize size.
Here’s how we did it with the WGA:
Industry-first diaphragm design - the WGA’s Nomex-reinforced silicone diaphragm is designed to achieve the largest effective diaphragm area with the smallest possible outside diameter. This gives the WGA more control authority over the wastegate flap, resulting in better boost control. It’s a bit like being the turbo’s puppet-master, rather than its puppet!
No unnecessary bulk sounds obvious, but attention to detail in the design means the WGA is the shortest actuator on the market.
Longest stroke – with 18mm of rod travel, the WGA is suitable for controlling the largest of internal wastegates, or the extra travel can be used to further increase boost pressure without having to change springs.
Unique pivoting rod guide – machined from PEEK (an extremely high-performance engineering polymer), the encapsulated spherical rod guide takes up significantly less height in the actuator body than other designs, whilst offering low friction and superior wear resistance.
