jevansio Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I have a funny feeling the reason my car is dropping boost down to 1.0 BAR in the upper gears is a faulty boost solenoid. I use one the AEM ones. Can these be bought seperately, and where is the best place to get them. I also recall someone saying they are just a generic part (BOsch or something) & it doesn't need to be the AEM one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 they are called MAC valves part model 35A-AAA-DDBA-1BA i'm sure RyanG stocks them:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Jay I've got a greddy 1 lying in the garage if you can't get an AEM unit and want to try a different 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 I was taking the old one off today & noticed it was pretty badly coked up inside, so I got some wd40 & cleaned it out. It hasn't failed to hit 1.5 BAR perfect in every gear since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
