Default Three port boost selenoid

Will a v3 sti one go on to an 54 wrx, and do i need any parts, also how do i fit it, and does it need to be mapped after fitting or will it be fine.

The car will need mapping at the time of fitting as the ECU won't be able to control boost properly. It's normal practice to get the mapper to fit them

Are you going to map it yourself then ? ..usually the mapper fits it for free (Bob Rawle did)

Bob Rawle doesn't do opensource but quite a few of the travelling mappers will do

They always pop the bonnet to look for leaks, loose connections, oil etc so if you have the 3-port bolted on the inner wing then I'm sure they would plumb it in for you
