The wastegate actuator is what you are talking about..... all it does is open and close the wastegate. The acrual wastegate is just a hole (or 2, in the case of the S5) drilled in the turbine housing that allows exhaust gasses to bypass the turbine wheel. If it impossible to switch just the wastegate, you would have to switch the turbine-side of the turbo itself.
