Hey guys

Some knob - i.e G.A Garage sent me a Blitz SBC 3 BoostController which was totally fried... Im thinking the solanoid could be fried as well!!!

Anyone know if any power is sent to it to do such a thing? or most if not all the power was sent to the screen??

Im able to get a screen and new controller for a decent price still to hold me even I guess.. Was wondering if its worth it concidering the solanoid could be rooted.

I know its quite a general question but someone who knows how they work might be able to help .. if its all mechanic and no electrical movements involved it still may be ok.

If I could, how would I check?

easy way to test the coil is to just power up the two coil wires one pos and one neg. if you here it click then it has switched. to further test this you could then blow through the line in hole and see if you get air through when it is on and none through when it is off.

u should be able to check with a M-Meter,

u should be able to disconnect the coil from the actuator... then power it up and put something metal in the middle of the coil,

When it's activating you should be able to feel it through the peice of metal (a small screw driver would be ideal)

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.

      Time to decide what’s more import, your power level or your budget because you’re going to struggle to keep both
