V1 need info for boost solenoid connector :-(

[Goblinfanclub1234]

I have been unable to get above 5psi boost on my turbo, found a broken wire in the connector for the wastegate solenoid.

I am about to disconnect it to see if I can get more boost on wastegate spring pressure.

I need to replace this connector...anyone know where I can find one?

plan b is taking it apart and reconnecting the pins to new wires

Tomorrow at work I can see if there’s a part number for that connector

I found the GM one it was $57

my research tells me this one may work...its worth a try.

Amazon.com

That looks like it.

getting very annoyed I just spent $1,000 in parts to replace the entire top end and timing parts and still not able to get over 5psi. i think its the wastegate. I am WOT in 2nd gear and max boost was only 5 I can hear the turbo full spool. it has to be either the wastegate or BPV

See if the one on the Bosch intercooler pump is the same. If so I think it’s the standard EV1 fuel injector connector.

i got that amazon generic one coming tomorrow will test it out tomorrow night. I still have never felt what 22psi on an engine with full compression feels like. my comp went from 85-110 up to 145 on all cylinders at 5,600ft altitude

Replacing the wastegate solenoid electrical connector fixed my problem I'm now ripping around 22-23 PSI (will run some data logs soon) with a brand new zzp OEM head, OEM valves, arp studs, new zzp head gasket, all new timing parts. Very fast!!!
