Wastegate ewg or pwg?

Hi, new member here. My first BMW and loving it so far.
Can anyone confirm what wastegate type is used on a 2014 F15 35i platform?
I see there are two types available, mechanical and electric.

Probably, check under your hood it will say 3004cc instead of 2979cc.

Thanks guys I'll check. Haven't actually looked at the build date yet but figure it's prob in '14 since it's a '15 production year.
