Hi Mark

instructions should be good enough. its basically power, and then suitible plumping under the bonnet (or boost hoses and solenoid).

whats the bit thats troubling you?

Steve, thanks for the reply, is there a recommended place to locate the solenoid? should I take the old one out and if I do what happens to the induction hose that feeds into the bottom, also confused about where I connect in the pressure sensor, the AVCR manual refers to a pressure regulator chamber, where do I find this? Is this the black cylinder at the left of the radiator as you look in under the bonnet, or am I looking in completely the wrong place?

thanks
Mark

Steve, could do with some help, got the thing in, have turbo to NO and Actuator to COM but the boost goes up intially and then goes right down, like its working backwards, should I have turbo to NC? or am I doing something really wrong?

Its done, was me being a bit daft, needed to take it out to see the boost under load didnt I, still its sorted now, and not only does it look good, but the car goes faster too, still got some fine tuning to do but not three bad for an old fella... lol

No because I am only running 11.4 psi which is 0.8 bar, which I believe is standard for the WRX, have sent you a mail for this already Simon.

thanks Mark
