Duty Cycle: 0-100% PWM
Response Time: <10ms
Connection Type: 2-Pin Weatherproof Connector
Thread Size: M12x1.0
Pressure Range: 0-25 PSI
Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C
Body Material: Anodized Aluminum
Seal Material: Viton
Vehicle Compatibility
- 2002-2007 Subaru Impreza WRX
- 2004-2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI
- 2005-2006 Subaru Legacy GT
- 2004-2007 Subaru Forester XT
- Compatible with stock and mild aftermarket turbo systems
- Works with factory and aftermarket ECU tunes
Performance Features
- Direct OEM replacement with performance improvements
- 15% higher flow rate compared to stock solenoids
- Improved boost response and reduced turbo lag
- Enhanced durability for high-boost applications
- Superior heat dissipation for consistent performance
- Optimized internal port design for smoother airflow
- Tested to over 1 million cycles for maximum reliability
- Perfect for both stock and modified applications
Installation Guide
Installation is straightforward and can be completed in under 30 minutes with basic hand tools:
- Locate the factory boost solenoid on the intake manifold near the throttle body
- Removal of intercooler may be required for easier access
- Disconnect the electrical connector by pressing the tab and pulling gently
- Disconnect the vacuum lines, taking note of their orientation
- Remove the mounting bolt(s) securing the solenoid
- Install the new solenoid in the reverse order
- Ensure vacuum lines are reconnected in the correct orientation
- Secure the mounting bolt(s) to factory torque specifications
- Reconnect the electrical connector until it clicks
Pro Tip: No ECU reflash is required for stock applications, but we recommend checking your wastegate actuator function after installation.
