Are they transferable to a Newage?

Are you getting a re-map?

They can be fitted onto a Newage as I have one fitted to mine, but the terminal pins on your wiring loom will require filing down to make them 'mate' with the plug on the solenoid valve.

You can fit prior to a remap but you should drive it off boost until the car is remapped for it.

If you are getting a remap done then I would leave it until then, and get your mapper to fit it as there is some re-plumbing of the boost solenoid hoses to be carried out and a restrictor pill to be removed/moved.

Who's mapping it? Probably best to let him fit it, Martyn at EngineTuner just charged for the solenoid they fit them all the time so it would just make sense
