Flashpro + Mac boost solenoid

Hi,

Just made the car turbo, its an internal wastegate setup with a recently installed MAC solenoid. On your help file, the diagram is for an external setup, not internal. So I configured it as port 1 = breather filter , port 2 = internal wastegate, port 3 = turbo pressure.

On the flashpro should I select normally open or closed. Right now its set at normally open, but it wont boost more than 8psi (spring rate). Fixed duty was set at 70% - 80% with no change in boost.

I appreciate the help

Regards

Has your ECU been modified to add the components to the ECU for boost control?

Yes. Ecu was sent and Everything is connected.

Today, I was making some tests and at 20% is boosting up. Apparently boost increases when decreasing the percent. I have boost cut feature active and selected "solenoid normally open", is this ok?

Regards

Is this a Hondata solenoid?

No, Mac solenoid (identical one)

It may look the same but could be different internally. The one we offer is a normally closed solenoid.

That is not the same as a Hondata solenoid.
