All wastegates are mechanical. Only the way that the pressure line is altered is mechanical or electrically controlled.

Got to Amazon.com and go buy a book called Maximum Boost by Corkey Bell. This will answer all your questions.</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
Thanks for the book suggestion, I just ordered it. Any other good ones about engine technology you can recommend?
