Trying To Override Factory Boost Solenoid, Help?

[IslandBoy]

Hi I'm trying to override the factory boost solenoid thingy. I cannot find the solenoid, I have an SII r33 rb25det in a 240sx.

I want to ground the solenoids ground wire permenatly as done in the DIY section, however I cannot find an ecu pinout that shows exactly which wire it is. Can anyone tell me where this darn wire is? Thank you!

you probably dont have it

the solenoid is drilled to the wall of the engine bay in a skyline

easy way to override it is to just run a vacuum hose from the charged piping straight to the wastegate actuator

I just did that, it still does the same thing, goes to 5lbs then evntually to about 9lbs of boost. Is this some form of boost spike? Or is there a hidden boost solenoid built into the i/m or is everything just normal?

Also when I hit boost cut wil the car cut ignition/fuel or both?

if you have an FMIC and exhaust its going to creep a bit... mine was creeping to about 9 lbs after installing mine. Its normal.

So if i put a boost controller on could it creep any higher?

if you don't leave it completely loosening, if you add pressure to the MBC's spring it will increase the boost pressure. I wouldnt run more than 11-12 psi. After that its hit or miss on how long the turbine wheel stays attached...
