I'm not too clear on "way!" as I don't think I've heard that one before. However, all of these are very colloquial and their Spanish equivalents may change depending on the context.
For example:
No way! = Surprise or disbelief or it could mean no, that's not going to happen.
I suggest you read this as it offers several possibilities from different countries for No way!.
At any rate, the most "generic" translations for "no way" could be:
¡Que va! ¡Ni hablar!
Yes way! - Maybe ¡pues sí! or ¡claro que sí!, but they are not as informal or slangy as Yes way!
