Go for the 3 port solenoid from scoobyworx, this was recommended by the mapper I used and it has been spot on.

Yep, I've used those too. He uses the Pierberg units that Prodrive used to supply and Darrell @ Scoobyworx also supplies a plug and play wiring harness so it's a doddle to install. Excellent kit for the money.

Depending on how handy you are you can always buy one of these: Vacuum Solenoid as they are the same unit as the scoobyworkx one (I bought both, and they are the same apart from the mounting). You just need to make a flylead with some 2.8mm red spade connectors and electrical tape..... a little project and save some £'s

Yeah they were! When I bought one a few years back I paid £12 new delivered, and used it for my bespoke MBC project, now they have doubled in price, some inflation!.
