I think he means blowoff valve (or better: compressor bypass valve).
A wastegate technically limits the propulsion (turbo engines terminology)
I wonder if this idea is also used commercially (I mean in mass produced engines). There are not that many engines fitted stock with centrifugal superchargers I think.
But I like the idea to better use the centrifugal compressors' bandwith.
