BBK Full Wastegate

Does anyone know if the BBK full uses a Evo 8 or Evo 9 wastegate? I tried reaching out CBRD but I'm unable to get a response.

Its based off an IX so the IX WG is the one you're after. Do you need one as I have one kicking around that actually came off my BBK Full before I opted for a higher pressure unit?

Ahh gotcha. What are you targeting for boost with it? I switched to an 18# WG back when I had my BBK and was able to achieve 33# with it. Im sure I could have ran more boost but was out of injector and stock motor at the time so didnt want to push it. My point is seems like that might be a fairly stiff actuator.

You would need a minimum 15psi wga, so 22 is fine and probably easier to control @ 30.

If thats what your tuner wants then go for it. Personally I think that is too stiff and might be a lil challenging to control the spike. General rule of thumb is you want to have wg spring around half what your target boost is so given that I'd opt for an 18# wga.
