Dead Boost Solenoid ?

[Kaido_RR]

Just trying to work out if my stock boost solenoid in my gtr is dead ?

Car came with a bleed value, and today i finally got around to installing a boost gauge anyways was running 0.5bar, so i went and turn the bleed value 4 full circles clockwise and jump back in, and the boost was still running 0.5bar?

Could this be due to the std solenoid being dead and needed to be remove and just have the bleed value connected to the actuators?

Cheers

if u have another bleed valve, remove the stock boost solenoid completely

There shouldn't be any vacuum lines going into the factory boost solenoid if you are using a bleed valve.

didn't want to make another thread..

so if replacing with an aftermarket manual/electronic boost controller, all the hoses connected to the factory solenoid should be blocked? (i have GTST but assume it's the same as for GTR)
