    You're not interested in using a couple of XR6 Turbo boost control solenoids? Under $40 each new from Ford, I think the last one I bought was $36 or so. They work well, 3 port solenoid, look pretty plain.
    Hmm sounds interesting......could flog off my blue one to fund x2 new ones I asume they have the same port congiguration ie easy enough to figure out how to plumb them up?

    RE your IC. Sounds to me like your IC is well sized for you flow requirements....ask more of it and perhaps not? but you're not likely to be chasing much more hp?

    I think you would see more gains from either installing WI or moving across and tuning for E85 (wish it would hurry up and arrive)

    I might have a Ford solenoid lying around, will check tonight and you can check it out when you grab the other stuff. They are just the same to setup as the MAC units, the nipples are built into the Ford unit though unlike the screw in MAC type, which is fine as long as you just plan to push on hose and not use speeflow fittings etc..

    On my tired motor I think 18psi or thereabouts is more than enough and after the weekends data collection I think the IC can stay until a later date.

    I have been thinking about adapting my sprayer to an injection system, might just do that sooner rather than later.
