hks actuator?

[enright82]

what happens with the low-boost solenoid when u fit a hks actuator?

 

[CaL]

chuck it in a cupboard

 

[glanzanut]

yeah but could u use the adjustable actuator to say raise boost to 1bar would the sylonoid still work to give you a low boost function, as i have also wondered about this

 

[enright82]

iv got mine running a bleed valve on high side at 0.7bar, the button still works, cutting the boost to 0.3bar. so theoreticaly yes u could run a bar and still have a low boost function... enright82

please correct me if i am wrong

but on the standard actuator as the hks one only has on connection on it

but on the standard actuator as the hks one only has on connection on it

i beleve u just fit a T pace in and run a line to the high low solenoid.

 

[enright82]

why does it go to the solenoid?

i thought it would take the same track as the high side, is the solenoid a boost controller?

 

[glanzanut]

lol has anyone actually done it with an hks actuator?

 

[enright82]

done what? how do u mean?

 

[glanzanut]

plumbed the sylonoid back in with an hks actuator

 

[enright82]

i dnt think it would work would it? the standard actuator has 2 hose connections on it, were as the hks has one. which is why i assumed the hks would use the same connections as the high side, but iv seen some T'd up to the solenoid, just wondered y that is?

 

[Chris@CCM]

its so u can have a low boost seting too.this is how ur piping should be

 

[enright82]

so u can use low boost with the hks actuator?

YES! thats what i was trying to tell you lol

 

[ryanerak]

i've got mine plumbed in the same as the pic but my hi/lo doesnt work. would it be because my actuator is set to 0.5? when i set the actuator to what they say is 0.7 it wasnt an ended up at 0.5, gna sort it out tomorrow to see if it helps

 

[Duff]

YES! thats what i was trying to tell you lol

are you sure?? LOL..thats good to know now, must get my finger out and fit mine..

 

[enright82]

COOL, does the actuator control the high and the solenoid control the low.

if my low is set at 0.3 and 0.7 on high with a standard actuator, changing it for a hks set at 1bar, the low boost will still be 0.3 and high will be 1.0..

think the low gos up abit too mate but prob to about .5 if its set to 1bar max

no probs mate hope it all works lol it should tho cos thats how hks say to do it
