haltech charges what 80-90 bucks, aem about 120

you can get it from http://www.proautocon.com/manufacturerlist.asp?id=13 for 22 dollars

the same basic valve is available in 2 wattages the one that seems identical to the haltech valve is labeled as 12.7 watts and has part number 35a-aaa-ddea-1ba

guess what else, AEM has 200 of these valves on order, saw it on the computer screen myself when the salesman looked up the valve.

so there you have it, just bought 5 of them to run the twins for 102 dollars

the other wattage available is a 5.4, this would probably be a better wattage than 12.7 for controlling things that just switch instead of PWM, especially if you want to control more than one of a single PWM without a relay. the 5.4 watt is a little cheaper

Before someone comes on here and says that 12.7 watts is more than the rated 1 amp of the haltech PWM outs, yes you are correct it is approx 1.05 amps.

Holding this and the haltech valve at the same time in comparison with the other 5.4 watt valve, there is no doubt whatsoever in my mind that this is the haltech valve. The 5.4 has black wires while the haltech valve has brown wires.

I will test it with a multimeter to see what its actual max current draw is as compared with the haltech valve.

I did post this some time ago but not as detail because I didn't want to be politicaly incriminated!
The valve is also used by many of the professional EBC's out there like the 'e-boost' etc.
There is another valve used that's supposed to be a little better especially when high boost levels are involved but I can't remember the brand presently.

Your a haltech dealer right??? so that makes sense.

The valve label says its rated to 120PSI. I can't really imagine a car running that much boost.

I know the valve your talking about, the place I bought these at had them too, but I think they cost more, and since I already had the haltech valve I wanted them to match.

These valves or possible the 5.4 watt version would be perfect for controlling the FD twins, maybe I should post this in the FD section.

There are some very close though.
Seriously the valve got to be able to flow and handle high pressure due to it's inteneded use. For many high boost applications a pressurised bottle containing CO2 or O2 etc. is used to compensate for the high exhaust back pressure. Just imagine what the exhaust back pressure would be when you're running close to 50-60psi of boost. For many of those applications there are no need to even use the side port on a wastegate!

Thats well beyond my experience level, though I will say I once ran a turbo car at only 17 PSI with no boost control and no boost line hooked up to the wastgate. Exhaust pressure would open the wastgate and no matter what boost wouldn't go over 17-18 psi.

It doesn't say the wattage of those solenoids any idea what it is.

4.5 watts at 12v.

sorry to bring an old thread up but which part number did you order for the MAC boost solenoid (same as haltech)

rx7fc90

Part # is : 35A-AAA-DDBA-1BA.


ive seen them on ebay there are lots of them there. here is one that i just found a couple of minutes ago

I would say probably 60$ for the total cost including shipping and the two 1/8-NPT fittings that go on the inlet and outlet of the thing that you have to buy,
pretty good considering the cheapest price i've got on a haltech boost control solenoid was 89 bucks without shipping.
but since you said 22$ for the solenoid thats a price that can't be beat just need to see if its true
going to do some research on that site.

22 dollars or so is the actual retail price, as of last year

accordfreak

thanks for the info!

So there should be no issue running the 35A-AAA-DDEA-1BA (12.7 Watt) version?

I have to jump in here and hope that i dont get my head blown or bitten off, but i looked into this and Haltech's solenoid is supposedly ordered with "improved specs" for heat and ware and a stronger spring for the added boost pressures it may be subjected to. And most importantly, is that Haltech has to order them in such large quantities to get this done to them that its why they price it the way they do.

Dont kill me or quote me, im just the messenger.

The haltech solenoid is 12.7 watts by my multimeter.

I picked up a package from my front porch. It was the 5.4-watt solenoid. I actually had forgotten that I ordered it!!

Got it from here for $26:

You need the 12 volt, 1/8 sized orifice.
