cybaster Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Hi everyone, Long story short, I used to have a stage 3 tune with the grimmspeed EBCS but because of smog, I had to revert back to the VF40 stock map. i can't find my stock boost solenoid so I need to hook up the EBCS as a 2-port bleed type but I am confused as to how. I am trying to follow the instructions below but i'm still having issues connecting the lines. https://www.grimmspeed.com/content/install_guides/boost_control_solenoid_online_version.pdf so question: port 2 connects to the wastegate? - should I use the stock T-fitting, 1 side connecting to the internal waste gate and the other including the pill connects to the turbo inlet? port 3 leave open port 1 connect to intake snorkel. or do I have this all messed up? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustCallMeNick Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I don't know the answer to your question. I installed a Perrin EBCS a few days ago and am not confident I did it right. I think I might have blown my engine tonight. Actually I think I did the solenoid right but blew the engine by overboosting on a base map. Sorry for thread hijacking. Just bummed and I was just struggling with a ebcs a few days ago so I can relate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dga Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I'd call them as they've left out the figure 2 in that manual, the one that shows you how to hook it up in bleed mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then hopefully someone knows how to hook this up in 2-port mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybaster Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 Thanks everyone, also I reached out to Grimmspeed and got a response from them: Port 1 - to the T fitting (t fitting between compressor housing and wastegate) Port 2 - Turbo inlet Port 3 - Capped which seems to be what the Mazdaspeed 6 manual suggests as well.
