Sibold · 06-05-2014, 07:04 PM

Can anyone help me with locating connection #4(boost solenoid) on the F22 N55? pics? I cant find it where its shown on the F30 pics/vids for JB4 install.

Thanks!

The rainbow one?

Connector with blue wires and metal clasp

Cripple · 06-05-2014, 07:26 PM

You dont connect that one..

Sibold · 06-05-2014, 07:41 PM

So there's just 2 connections?

JustinCredibleM · 06-05-2014, 08:10 PM

There's only two connections -- one for the TMAP sensor and the MAP sensor. Then the other wires are for power and the CANbus connection.

Make sure you read the instructions carefully

When we will be able to use the solenoid control on our cars?

We already can! You will require a special EWG harness though and I've been using it for a few weeks now.

Any differences? does the power delivery increase?

Thanks Justin...

The EWG harness lets you hit a higher target boost as well as hold boost better through the rev range. Without it, you can only get 2-3 psi over stock which is pretty much Stage 1 status. But higher boost target pretty translates to more power everywhere

I am just saying its possible to do it, but its not released yet. I am a beta tester for it

. He's ignoring all emails about it right now, but he said he'll be releasing it this month I think.
