I've got 2 boost controllers installed right now, but I have a question. From what I'm reading, it seems that I need to disconnect the boost solenoids from the system. Do I do this by disconnecting the hoses (opposite from the mbc's) from the actuator and capping the actuators off? I can't seem to find a straight answer by searching. Thanks.

Hopefully this helps, check out this thread: https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ntroller+boost

Oh thanks. I've read that thread before, but I never read the diagram where the solenoids were.

I got another question. Where are the solenoids? I need a real picture of them. The diagrams arent helping me.

Take off your strut tower bar.
Unbolt your Pressure chamber (black plastic box), move it aside
TA-DA!

They're right there

Ok, thanks

Ugh. I need more help guys. I've taken off the solenoid 'rack' with the boost solenoids. I have four places, on the car, where vacuum hoses were connected. I've also read I need to keep the electrical connection together. What I do to keep the electrical connection together and what do I do with the places where the hoses were connected?

Thanks

Uh... the boost solenoids that you need to disconnect for your MBC are not on the rack. they're on their own. Clearly centred in Dale Clark's picture in one of my previous posts.

If you've taken your rack off, you've done way too much.

I didn't know what to call the thing that they were on. I just called it a rack and put it in 'apostrophe' things. Any other help?

leave the solenoids there. plug the electrical connectors in, leave it alone.

they vent the actuators to the primary intake elbow.

if you MUST remove the 2 hoses from that small manifold and the 2 from the hardlines to the acuators, you can leave them open or capped. no matter.

if you MUST remove the solenoids, then someone else can explain the how to make a 'fake' solenoid

Thanks. It boosts great now. It seems like it sounds different. Is there any reason that it would?
