Do you need a wastegate for a supercharger?
Does Supercharger require a wastegate? The Supercharger does not require a wastegate to function correctly because there are no exhaust gases involved. In turbos, the wastegate gives way for the exhaust to bypass the turbine wheel, which serves as a regulator to the charger.
