To all forum members that might have slow responsive turbo spooling and bad solenoid valves etc, this may be beneficial to you
After saxyman built a custom rack which was widly spread within the community, and recreating this custom rack wasn't quite as easy.
Benefit of this custom solenoid rack includes:
1)Eliminates stock solenoids which fails quick easily due to location
2)Relocate of new solenoids result in long lasting solenoid
3)These solenoids are rated at 100psi therefore it is great for aftermarket twins like BNRs if you wanted higher boost
4)A much more smooth spool transition from primary to secondary turbo.
5)Better reliability on the solenoid system which results a much more enjoyable twin turbo system
6)Responsiveness of solenoid reacts quicker than stock. Some might noticed a difference some might not. Therefore do NOT expect a "faster" response compared to stock solenoid system. However I believe it is "quicker".
More information and pictures of the build can be found HERE
This kit consist of:

Solenoid Valve - TCP, CRV, CCA, TCV
Manifold

Stainless Steel internals
Molded coil (resistant to water and temperatures in excess of 300deg)
Custom aluminum manifold
100psi rating
Electroless Nickel Plated Brass fittings
Better flow and reaction time than stock solenoids
Rebuildable
Shipping anywhere in the lower 48 (overseas customers: please contact me prior to purchase to get additional information on shipping)
Group Buy close-out: We have 3 months till this GB closes. However if we can fill up the 10 spots on the list, I can start the run right away.
Shipping time: Once I begin to place orders for parts, you can expect about 3-4 weeks before the finished system arrives at your door. IF ANYTHING WERE TO COME UP, I ASSURE EVERYONE THAT I WILL BE CONSISTENTLY IN CONTACT THROUGH EMAIL OR PMs.
For this GB to work, I would require a non-refundable of $250 up front payment.(Why such a high non-refundable? Because once the order is sent through, there's no refund on my part and these solenoids are freakn expensive. However you will get JUST the solenoids itself if you've decided to back out) If pay by paypal, please USE THIS CALCULATORto figure out the fee and the payment w/o shipping cost for now. As shipping is to be determined.
