Default WG with adjustable preload.

i was looking somewhere online a while ago and forgot to favorite it. But it was a wastegate that had preload on it so you could "control" lag. You set the preload higher and the wastegate wouldnt start opening till right @ your desired boost leve.... reduce the preload and it would start opening sooner for a more linear boost curve.

AGP makes one.. basically any wastegate can be setup to do preload with a threaded actuator arm.
It's not as linear as you might think, but it will do the job..
