Yes it will fit - You just need to get approx 1meter of 3mm ID silicone vacuum hose to connect it to the turbo - Drop me a PM if you'd like one.

Yes, it's a direct plug-in to the factory engine bay wiring loom.
You'll need approx 1 metre of 3mm ID silicone vacuum hose to connect it to the turbo and actuator.
Obviously the ECU's boost control duty cycle tables will need to be tweaked to suit the new solenoid

Yes, the ecu's boost control tables need to be adjusted to suit this solenoid.

Unplug the stock 2 port solenoid, removing all the vacuum pipework from the
turbo pressure outlet, wastegate actuator, and the return to turbo inlet pipe
Undo the 2 X 10mm nuts fixing the stock solenoid and remove.
Fit the Prodrive solenoid to the same bracket that you removed the stock one from - I tend to secure it with double sided foam tape, and use one of the 10mm nuts on a bracket stud to fix the solenoid under.
Plumb the solenoid as follows, using 3mm ID vacuum hose and small cable ties to secure
You will NOT need to use the restrictor pill from the standard pipework, but will need an immediate map adjustment.
