GrimmSpeed Electronic Boost Control Solenoid: The GrimmSpeed Electronic
Boost Control Solenoid is designed to work with your factory computer (requires
tuning). It will not reduce the life of your factory computer because it is
designed to draw the same ammount of power as the factory BCS but flows better
and reacts faster. It plugs in and requires no splicing or soldering of
resistors. With the included bracket you can bolt it in, plug in the connector,
and start tuning for fast boost response, increased boost pressure and free up
lots of power. Planning on returning the car to stock? Just reverse
installation.
*Why run an Electronic BCS over a Manual Boost
Controller?*
A MBC allows you to run higher than stock boost levels by
preventing the wastegate from opening at its rated pressure. It does a great job
at this but if boost is available under the MBC setting it will give you that
full boost. So for instance, you set your MBC to 18psi because from 3000-6000rpm
thats what you want. But then say you get detonation with 18psi when you are at
7000rpm unless you are below 16psi. With a MBC, you do not have this control so
you are forced to run 16psi through the entire rev range. With an electronic
boost controller you could run 18psi from 3000-6000 and 16psi at 7000rpm because
you can tune the boost map in the ECU which will allow you to run the maximum
amount of boost at every given rpm. This gives you more power throughout the
range and better control. Revolutionizing the boost solenoid market, we have
created model specific install brackets that allow you to directly fit our Boost
Solenoid into your vehicle for a factory fit. No more Zip-tying! We give you the
factory fitment you have been waiting for.
Staying with the OEM fitment
theme, the GrimmSpeed Electronic Boost Control Solenoid uses an OEM style wiring
harness so you can simply unplug your OEM solenoid and plug ours in. No more
cutting the oem wiring and crimping wires together!
Also new to the
electronic boost solenoid market, we have used ultra low-profile hose fittings
to keep the unit as small and clean as possible. The hose fittings are nickel
plated brass so you don't have to worry about them snapping off like the plastic
hose fittings!
*More Features*
* Users can use AN fittings with the
solenoid.
* MAC Valve has completely custom made the valve for us(only MAC
valve on the market to be custom made for automotive tuning use).
*
Specifically designed by GrimmSpeed™ to work safely with the factory ECU
(requires tuning) and to reliably handle the vibrations and temperatures of your
engine bay!
* Direct bolt in mounting bracket and hardware included!
*
Faster response and greater flow than any other valve out there. (by more than
10%!)
* Nickel plated brass fittings. (unlike the competitors failure prone
plastic fittings)
