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.

    • Hi, wondering if the HKS bar and water reservoir still available? Thanks 
    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not
