3 port MAC valve Boost Controller with Terminator X

[@murkymurph8355]

Who has bad things to say about sloppy? All you gurus giving out hard earned knowledge for free are awesome to me. Thank you!

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

I think some people need to justify how they spend their money. When I bought the dash I noticed there wasn't much of for instruction, probably because until recently the people buying these didn't really need it because they were used to working on high end cars and the price kept it out of the regular Joe's budget. Shortly after I got mine installed I noticed people asking questions and shading videos seemed like the most efficient way of sharing that knowledge.

this video was spot on perfect.. exactly the info i needed. although im setting up a dual mac valve config, but its basically the same other than the software config and a slightly different fitting setup. now for me to find out where to steal power from for my mac valves.. thinking the pink wire that turns my sniper on since i don't wanna run new wires through my deutsch bulkhead (if i even have any spares)..

I'm glad it helped, thanks for watching.

@@TrailerParkMotorsports your welcome

[@1BAD6T6]

Great video. I'm guessing that if you want raise your target boost, you need to adjust the Dome table to reflect the increase? If you have a 10psi spring, adding 8 to the dome should yield 18psi. If you want more, increase dome, correct?

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

Thanks for watching. Yes, that is correct, however verify on the datalog because sometimes adding pressure on top of the dome doesn't always correspond to the pressure in the manifold. In your case, 8 pounds on top of the spring may come out to 20 pounds in the intake.

Damn, building my first LS with boost and so so much to take in.....

[@vrg69]

Thanks very useful info

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

You're welcome, glad it helped. Thanks for watching.

[@GamerBoy2ndSt]

Hey man, just to make sure I got the wiring correct from the dome sensor to the power tap and input: Wire 1 goes to B Wire 2 goes to C Wire 3 goes to J1-A4 Pin and for the mac valve do I just wire the J1-B10 output to signal a conventional relay to power the mac valve? Or maybe just directly to the mac valve? Just confused by the solid state relay you have there. Thank you.

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

Yes, correct to all. You don't need the solid state relay, you could just run an ignition hot wire to the mac valve to give it power. In my case, the J1-B10 is the ground side of the circuit, how the ECU tells the valve to open and let pressure into the top of the waste gate. Since I have the Pro Dash, one of the screens is my switch panel, but that MSD SSR is overkill if that's all you're wanting to power from that relay. A regular Bosch 40 amp relay would work just fine. Thanks for watching.

[@GamerBoy2ndSt]

Okay I am starting to understand it better but what is the difference between having a relay and directly wiring 12v switched to the mac valve? Why would you wire a relay? Thank you for explaining this, I just need to wire my boost solenoid and I can get started on tuning my 73 k10 6.0 ls twin turbo swap. =D

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

No difference, the valves don't draw much power. You could run it from a voltage source and put a $2 toggle switch in line and then to the valve.

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

The only reason I used the solid state relay is that I already had it and I could eliminate a switch on my old switch panel by using a virtual switch.

[@GamerBoy2ndSt]

Gotcha! Well i think im gonna go ahead and give it a try. Thank you again.

[@DropTopPerformance]

But Kevin that holley sticker makes it worth more because it adds 10hp

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

That's not how that works

[@HeadFlowInc]

What’s the benefit to running a reference line to the bottom port?

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

Matt Happel is better at explaining it than I am. Here is the link to his video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJ3ZeYyjrKqjrbs

[@henrysordia9844]

Great video man. i have sloppy harness for my e85 on my power tap. can i use something else for 5v reference or should i just tap into the sloppy harness. i love how you break shit down Barney style and make it very simple.

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

Glad you liked it. You can tap a few things onto the power tap with no issue. I'm also using the Sloppy flex/alt harness and have the dome pressure sensor on the same 5v source as the flex sensor.

[@BmoreFox]

Same here. Was wondering the same. The power tap harness is amazing to have!

[@BmoreFox]

@@TrailerParkMotorsports so you just spliced into the 5v on the sloppy harness?

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

Correct

[@BmoreFox]

And subbed

Trailer Park Motorsports Thank you sir. Love your videos

Those cheap amazon 30 dollar Mac valve last maybe 3 months racing . I stay with my turbosmart Mac valves 4 years still working.

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

Thanks for watching and your input. I'll be keeping an eye on it and I planned on taking a spare on drag week, as well as spare sensors that are not easily sourced at parts stores like AutoZone.

[@3rdgenjose699]

Very good video thank you !

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

Thanks for watching, glad you liked it.

[@3rdgenjose699]

Got a question do I have to use the 50psi pressure sensor or can I use the 25 psi from low dollar

[@TrailerParkMotorsports]

@@3rdgenjose699 you could any pressure sensor you want. I just guessed when I bought it that the 50 psi one would work best for me.
