Not the wastegate itself.

They are controlled by either manifold pressure or btter yet C02.

An EBC uses logic to open and close a solenoid based on a user defined set point.

I dont think there is anyway to open a wastegate based on vacuum. That would be more of the BOV's duty.

let me look through my bookmarks. I found an electronic wastegate not to long ago. It is controlled by an actuator.
