rayaapp2 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I know the engine will run without this item. I dont know exactly what it does except maybe prevent overboost. Im just guessing here. I am planning on running the engine stock and incorporating all that I can. Even the Purge control and carbon canister. Well, My engine is missing the boost control solenoid completely. It was cut from the harness. So I am on the hunt for one. Does anyone know if the boost control solenoid is the same solenoid used on the Series 1 or 2 engines? A lot of the NEO 6 stuff seems to unique so Im worried that this part is as well and there are so few of them out here state side Im not very hopeful I will get an answer as Im sure most of us here just delete such things.

wrcbonk Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Ray, You may remember my experience. My Series 1 rb did not come with the boost solenoid and supplier shook their heads at me when I asked for it later. I ended up with a manual boost controller. Excited to hear you have a NEO6!!!

Bill You can run without it on the Series 1 and 2. At least Ive been able to run those with no ill effects. I had the stock one on my Series 2 and did not notice a difference with it connected or disconnected. The NEO is a different animal though in a lot of ways and Im not sure, but Id say this might be one of those differences. I cannot find any pictures of that solenoid on the net for the NEO motor. I do have a Profec B spec II ready to go though. The stock controller though I believe is a fine tuning device not what actually controls ultimate boost pressure. Sort of a spike preventer. Just my guessing from what Ive seen of these motors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
