DIESEL TALK | AFE BLADERUNNER WASTEGATE ACTUATOR!
Looking to improve boost control and turbo performance on your 5.9L Cummins? The aFe BladeRunner Wastegate Actuator is designed to help maintain consistent boost pressure, improve mid-range power, and reduce wastegate creep, especially on tuned or higher-demand setups. It’s a direct replacement designed to bolt onto factory mounting points for an easy install.
In this video, we take a closer look at the aFe BladeRunner Wastegate Actuator, how it works, and why it’s a popular upgrade for 2003–2007 5.9L Cummins owners looking for better turbo response and more consistent performance.
The factory wastegate setup can allow boost to fall off under load. Upgrading to the BladeRunner Wastegate Actuator helps your turbo maintain boost more effectively, improving throttle response and mid-range performance, especially when towing or running added power. Some 2004.5–2007 applications may require a wastegate fooler solenoid to avoid a check engine light.
