AVC-R install?

SubyFreak05 · 08-10-2006, 03:13 PM

URGENT! Getting tuned 2morrow and I need to install this boost controller!

Does anyone have a electrical diagram of the cars ecu so I can figure out where to splice in for the avc-r unit.

That thread helped but didn't talk about the placement of the soleniod. I wish someone would do a nice how-to (with pictures). I am attacking mine this weekend and I guess I will shine the light on myself.

Did you guys figure it out?

Is the 04 and 05 pin-out for the ECU the same? Anyone?

I dont think the 04 and 05 pin out is the same.

Also, I mounted the solenoid here:

I drilled 4 holes in the black plate then I mounted the solenoid to it, its nice cause the kit includes a nice rubber spacer. Then all the vacume lines are less then a foot long and it all looks clean.

I really like the unit, it has so many functions, it reads a lot of different things. Also has about 3-4 ways in which you can view the information , like it can display just the #'s, a imitation gauge, a graph, and you can view more then one thing at once. For example, you can display boost & throttle position at the same time. Also it records the highest reading right below the current reading, it resets everytime the car is shut off. So you would def. have some early indication of a boost problem. If money wasnt a problem I would def. keep the part.

The whole reason I have it is because I was told I was gonna need it for my set-up, so I bought it. Now, about 2 months later I found out I dont need it and at the moment I really need a clutch cause the stocker is slipping bad, so I have to sell some unnecessary parts to save up enough for a clutch.

Edit: I just realized you have the same unit, so you know this already lol
