    Wastegate ID

    I have noticed that the higher power Works engines seem to be fitted with a wastegate that does not appear to be Porsche in origin. There is obviously some commonality within the wastegate family as sometimes the Audi Cap is used on an obviously non Audi wastegate housing.
    The most obvious clue that it is not the Porsche wastegate are the flanges which are usually square on the Porsche. The pic below shows the flanges to be rectangular, with the mounting points clearly on the side and close together rather than in each corner.
    I guess this has an even larger valve than the Porsche, I was just wondering what it was sourced from.

    to me it looks exactly like Porsche 930 wastegate except the Porsche name being removed

      Look more closely at the mounting flange!

        And again. It does not appear to be the regular 930/911 type of flange and it is integral not an adaptor.
