I shouldn't say this, but at an educated guess.

Gold thing goes to wastegate, the other two can be used as either manifold or opened.

Now that I think about it, that picture you uploaded earlier looks shockingly similar to a std soleniod. (Well on the i-R, anyway)

The solenoid is the same as the DSBC Spec S ( the single solenoid version) - surely the guys at Cypher or another performance will know what to hook to what? Ive asked Jordan if he can shed any light on the situation.

Sorry something that should be straight forward is becoming a drama... we will sort it soon :P

Poyz it IS the same as the DSBC Spec S solenoid if you have worked with one of them...

do you have the doco on setting one up (or know what hooks to what?)

The DSBC Spec R has that huge dual solenoid box with the in and out connectors labelled clearly.

Downloaded the Japanese manual for the Spec S (got any Japanese mates?) and the piccy for solenoid installation shows the IN line being the bottom steel connection, and the OUT line being the bottom of two plastic connections closest to the body of the solenoid.

I am unsure what the top plastic connection does, but its not shown as either connected or blocked off.

Hope this helps - oh, and make sure you mount the solenoid within 1m of the wastegate (usually where the stock solenoid was is a good mounting point) to keep good response.

Hi adam 32, why don't you just take a guess and connect it up. It isn't gunna harm anything, leave the hoses long enough for swapping and take it for a short drive. Watch the boost guage and swap it around until it works. Take less time than typing posts.

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
