Stock LLY does not use a wastegate. Instead it used a variable vane turbo.

the lly turbo does not have a wastegate, it uses the vaines inside the VGT to moderate the exhaust drive pressure produce the desired boost.

if you are wanting to up your boost PPE sells the electric boost controller, kinda spendy but it'll lower your egt's a bit when you're towing or on a hot tune
