hi guys, ive got a r32 gtst with a wolf 3dv4. i want to be able to control boost with a wolf by using a r33 boost solenoid. However the r32 does not have one so i have to wire it in. I guess one of the wires goes to earth and the other goes to the wolf. has anyone hooked up a boost solenoid and know what wire to hook it into the ecu? thanks for ur help

How's it going.

The wolf has the ability to set your boost to what you want as well as boost cut.This has to be set up with your hand piece or laptop.

But to make your factory boost control unit work correctly off pulse is not easy , i am still having problems with mine. Who has been tunning your wolf . Is it going well?

If you have your ecu pluged into the factory harness, as i i9magine you have , then the wires going to your factory b controll is live as long as your ecu is set up as mentioned above. Are you installing a after market boost controler. I have a brand new precision 12v actuator valve that is simple to install if you need one.

Hey guys,

It took me ages to get this right.

Ended up getting a mac vavle (about 80 bucks) to control the gate, wiring in a new wire (to pin 5 I think), then setting a boost table. You need to put a resitor in the line :cheers:

Out of interest where did you get this valve from for that price?

MAC valves are excellent and are the ones used by the turbosmart eboost.

You dont need to use this tho if your on a very tight budjet. You may need to put a restrictor in the line from the wastegate to the solenoid and this will work tho you will need to change restrictors depending on what boost you wanna run. Also you wont be able to run your lowest boost setting with this set up (ie 6-8psi) but a bit higher but this shouldnt cause a problem. I had a skyline vavle on my wold3dv4 with no probs but you need the restrictor in the line or it wont work at all. Without the restrictor my car ran 6psi but with it in place is ran 10psi at the minimal setting and 15psi with valve fully opened. The skyline valves are really quite limited in the flow capacity they have.

But I would get a MACs valve cause they control your boost very very well and they're a piece of piss to set up. There are only 2 wires on the valve. Go to turbosmart.com.au and that should explain everything for this valve tho they dont say its a MAC (I think) the valve is definately a mac.

Hope this helps

HP Race Engines got it for me, but I don't know where.

I had to get a boost table set up on the dyno to control to boost throughout the reve range, otherwise it was pretty uneven, pulling between 12 - 19 psi (which is a big gap).

Pin 5 is where mine is hooked up (I think its the auto tranny line).

If you guys ever need a good tuner for Wolf3d's and lives near Wagga (or want to travel) Hayden from HP is really good.

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch

      It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.

      As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
