GrimmSpeed introduces the most complete and easy to use 3-Port Electronic Boost Solenoid available on the market. Our aftermarket boost controller allows you to raise the OEM boost levels in a quick and efficient manner. If you try to raise the boost on the weak OEM boost solenoid it will start to become unpredictable and unable to maintain proper and safe boost levels. Using our solenoid you are able to spool your turbo quicker and maintain a rock solid boost level. We have made our solenoid to withstand 120psi, way more than any Subaru will see.

Revolutionizing the Subaru boost solenoid market, we have created model specific install brackets that allow you to directly fit our Boost Solenoid into your Subaru for a factory fit. No more Zip-tying! We give you the factory fitment you have been waiting for.

Staying with the OEM fitment theme, our Boost Solenoid uses a Subaru style wiring harness so you can simply unplug your OEM solenoid and plug ours in. No more cutting the oem wiring and crimping wires together!

Also new to the Subaru boost solenoid market, we have used ultra low-profile hose fittings to keep the unit as small and clean as possible. The hose fittings are nickel plated brass so you don't have to worry about them snapping off like the plastic hose fittings!

More Features:

Users can use AN fittings with the solenoid.
MAC Valve's has completely custom made the valve for us(only MAC valve on the market to be custom made for automotive tuning use).
Specifically designed by GrimmSpeed to work safely with the factory Subaru ECU (requires tuning) and to reliably handle the vibrations and temperatures of your engine bay!
The only direct bolt in design for all Subaru models. Direct bolt in mounting bracket and hardware included! (specify which model before ordering)
Faster response and greater flow than any other valve out there. (by more than 10%!)
Nickel plated brass fittings. (unlike the competitors failure prone plastic fittings)
This BCS will handle all your boost control needs no matter what your power goals are.

  • do i need to disconnect the battery for this?

  • @ricky041878 It would be very wise when doing any electrical work to disconnect the battery!

    Will

  • At 1:42 you can see the hose is connected down at the bottom by your right hand, and when it transitions at 2:04, the hose is disconnected. Which hose is that, which you disconnected? Because at 5:43 you say the hose connects to the "stock location" but i don't understand what hose you removed from there in the first place. Sorry about the noob statement, I'm looking to get a WRX very soon and was curious about this. Thank you!

  • @23stealer23 Hey man great question!!! That one that is disconnected is the return to inlet hose. If you are running the BCS with an IWG and NOT an EWG then port 1 on the bcs will be routed here!

    Will

  • do i need to get a pro- tune after this or a cobb accesport would be good enough?

  • @ricky041878 Hey you will either need a Pro Tune or obtain an OTS map made specifically for this!

    Will

see all
