Apexi Boost Control Kit

[bygrave316]

Hey guys....

I just got the boost controller kit for the apexi and went to install it but came to the solenoid cable and got a little stuck.....

Plugs in fine on the solenoid end but when it comes to the other end dont have much of an idea.. it doesnt fit the original plug and not sure what to do.

Do I have the wrong wire?

here is a pic of the wire.

Oh car is R33 GTST

the boost control kit plug, is it the 3 pin or 5 pin kit?

what car do you have?

if its the 5 pin kit

then the solenoid power and ground run to the loom

and the 3 wires for map sensor run off the boost kit loom

if its the 3 pin kit

then the solenoid power and ground run off the STOCK car loom

and the 3 wires for the map sensor run off the boost kit loom

look at your ecu's wiring diagram to find what wire is wastegate control, usually wire #25. run this to the solenoid and run the other to power from somewhere (im pretty sure).

the powerfc faq shows u how to connect up both

it a 3 wire one....

right so the 3 wires for the map sensor

so you use the factory boost control wires to run the solenoid

just chop off the plug and match the wires

so im guessing that the black wire is positive and white is positive on the car?

yep, sounds about right

if its wrong you will run unlimited boost

so be sure to monitor boost when you test it

and dont keep it floored cos it will just keep rising past 1 bar

Ok Cheers for the help Paul
