Default UTEC Boost solenoid
Spoke to Jermaine, and this boost solenoid (made by TurboXS) is available. Anyone got one on their car yet?

yes it works although it was a bit of a pain to tune. The car wanted to lunge off the dyno rollers for a little bit there.

I actually have it disabled currently because I switched WG springs.

Mine used open loop but for some reason it was setup initially to use MAP 5 as a special solenoid map instead of the boost part of the other maps. I'll try to find it for you Julian.

Dunno, I'm kind of a dumb jock when it comes to this tuning stuff. call james at carv2 or pm USED. he's the tuner and should be able to answer all your tech questions julian.
