Which 3 port solenoid?
Am looking for a 3 port solenoid and just wondered what options there are? Scoobyworld stock the Turbosmart one but also heard people talk about Perrin. Which are the best ones to go for?

We've had alot of success with the MAC 3 Port Boost Solenoid, it's a great bit of kit, they're high quality and incredibly reliable.
From us they're £55 including VAT and UK delivery, they come with two fittings.

Looks like the Hybric EBC solenoid to me
Got 3 ports but only comes with two outputs....or atleast mine did
Edited to say: Just read the rest of your post lol
Why is it they only come with two outputs/fittings? Where could you source an extra one to run an external wastegate?

Unless you have an external wastegate you're only going to need to two fittings, I guess MAC just assume most people won't fall into that category, you can pick up 1/8 NPT nipple's for less than a tenner, they're a pretty common piece.
