Default Boost Solenoid

I searched and could not find any info as to what pin to splice for a boost solenoid. I have heard A4 or A6 I believe, but I wanted to make sure. Also how do you wire it up? Do you just splice it into the wire or actually cut the wire and solder the solenoid wire to KPRO wire? And where is a good place to wire the power wire up? Or what does it need to be wired to?

I know the diagram says A11, that is b/c its an older diagram for a different hondata ecu, but it applies the same. The pin is A6, that is why I stated it before I posted the diagram.

You cut the wire and wire it in according to the diagram.

For the boost controller no need to go to the ECU...take the wires that go to the purge valve inside the engine bay. Not sure where the purge valve is anymore (since mine isn't hooked up and I forgot). On the drivers side find the big ABS unit. Theres a big wiring loom going into that...inside of that look there should be a small loom of 2 wires going towards the engine block somewhere. The wires are black and red with a yellow stripe. Snip off the connector going to the purge valve and connect up the boost controller wires to them, IIRC the wire order does not matter.

thanks, I haven't wired that up yet, so wasn't sure about the harness routing
