Default How to install Greddy Profec B??

Hi I dont wanna muck it up so thought id ask, Ive been trying to find the answers but not having much luck.

I have a 1995 WRX and want to fit a Greddy Profec B boost controller.
I have it wired in for power no problem and the leads are through the bulkhead to the control box.

My query is
A: where does the pressure line from the main unit go?
B: where does the in and out pipes got to from the control box?
C: i have a 3 port boost solenoid which I believe I remove so what do I do with the 3rd line?


Pictures would really help if anyone has them?
Cheers all

Which Profec? There's a couple, I've got the Profec B Spec 2 fitted in mine.

I'll have a look tomorrow if you can wait.

Leave the standard 3 port in, and leave it plugged in - it will throw up a CEL if you unplug it.

Does yours have the GReddy 3 port boost control solenoid?

Mine is fitted as in the pic below;

The wiring goes to the in car control unit.

The vac pipe pointing towards the wing goes to the actuator, and the vac pipe pointing towards the air filter goes to the turbo compressor housing shown in the pic below;

You'll also need vacuum pipe feed to the control unit in the car, mine is tee'd into the feed for my boost gauge which comes off the inlet manifold.

Hope that's of help to you.
