Busta-Boost Controller With in Cabin Switch

I have installed my busta-boost controller with a 12v solenoid so that I can have the convenience to regulate the boost from inside the car.  The solenoid is hooked up so that I can choose which b-bc regulates my boost pressure.  One b-bc is set to 15 PSI and the other is set to 18 PSI.  With the switch off I get 15 PSI and when activated I have 18 PSI.

Tools and Parts Needed

1 12 volt 3-way solenoid
2 Busta-bc's
1 2-position switch
8 feet of speaker wire
1 plastic T
2 feet of vacuum hose
4 zip-ties
soldering iron and solder
wire stripper and cutter
  1. Take about 2 inches of vacuum hose and attach it to the turbo output nipple.
  2. Attach the other end of this hose to the input end of the 3-way solenoid.
  3. Now run vacuum hose to both ends of the solenoid so that it reaches the two b-bc's.
  4. I have my b-bc's zip-tied to the rad fan guard.
  5. Attach the hoses coming from the solenoid outputs to the inputs of the b-bc's.
  6. Now put about 2 inches of hose on the output ends of the b-bc's.
  7. Attach these hose ends to the T and hook up a piece of hose from the remaining end of the T to the wastegate nipple.
  8. Locate the bcs connector and tap into the red wire.  This provides the solenoid with 12 volts when the car is running.
  9. Run a length of speaker wire to the solenoid's position and solder this wire to the solenoid connector.
  10. The remaining end of the solenoid connector is soldered to the rest of the speaker wire and ran into the car.
  11. Attach the solenoid connector to the solenoid.
  12. Now locate a suitable position for the switch.
  13. Take the wire from the solenoid connector and solder it to the switch.
  14. Solder another bit of wire to the other end of the switch and attach this to ground.
  15. Turn the switch to the off position and set the initial boost level.
  16. Then turn the switch on and set the secondary boost level.
