i was having issues where if i set fast duty spool to 100% i would only make 5psi (wg spring)

so i had to turn it to 0 and waste gate activation to 0 as well.  then just mess around with the gear based target maps.

ill try what you said.  i wonder if the wiring is backwards would it make a difference?  the lines arent labelled..

The wiring for the solenoid has no polarity, so thats not the issue.

If 100% fast spool leads to WG spring pressure, it's hooked up wrong or set wrong. Ectune originally had the WG setting messed up. "Normally Open" was actually normally closed and vice versa. Sounds like you have to change that then redo your duty cycle map/table. You want the solenoid to be normally closed if you don't want infinate boost when something fails.

Just in case you have the solenoid wrong, the bottom port is hooked to boost, the top to the solenoid. When the car is off and the solenoid is in normally closed config, you can blow into the WG top port hose and it will blow freely out the solenoid's vent/exhaust port.

If you want to test the config as-is, set activation to a vacuum number, turn the car key (engine off), then blow into the tube leading to the solenoid. It should blow out the wg top port tube if 100% fast spool is set to 10psi and remain that way until the MAP sees 10psi of boost. If you blow into the top port tube at 50% fast spool, half the air will come out the vent, the other half out the boost reference line to the solenoid. If activation is set to a boost number and in normally closed mode, it will flow like the car is off in the paragraph above this one.

nice thanks thats very helpful


ill do some diggin around and invest some time into setting it up right.  every time i fucked with it, i did it at the track and i was always just too quick to give up and id throw the MBC back on since it holds boost 100% rock steady and it spools like crazy over the ebc.

Hipro this is great info! I'll have to reference your post once I set mine up.
