Mac Valve To External Wastegate Connection

[SiR_RB]

Hey fellas

I sold my power fc d-jetro and going to run an adaptronic which has a built in boost controller

I got a 3 port mac valve to control the boost

Is 1 on the valve from pressure source (eg from turbo housing/inter cooler piping) and 2 goes to wastegate while 3 is left venting?

Also I have a GFB EX50 wastegate with 2 ports, do I connect to the top or bottom port?

Any info would be great, thanks

I think you connect both ports on the WG to the solenoid there should be a diagram that comes with it?

There are many ways to set it up, depending what boost you plan to run. The Turbosmart website shows most of them.

I used a different 5 port MAC valve on mine, switching top and bottom wastegate ports separately, bleeding one port while actuating the other. I have perfect boost control from gate pressure, (18psi), to 30psi with only minimal drop off.

with my old blitz boost controller I had the solenoid going to the top port of the wastegate, then the bottom port when to the turbo compressor housing port

that way worked perfect and held boost perfectly but im reading a heap of different stuff so im confused

you can hook it up the same way you had it before OR like this:

I did mine how the blitz boost controoler manual recomnds with gate top port goes to out on controoler solonoid, gate bottom port to turbo housing and finally source close to throttle body to solonoid in port. Holds boost perfect.

^^ that's exactly how I had my blitz boost controller set up and that ran faultlessly holding boost without dropping off

Might set it up that way again seeing as it worked
