You've really used the search function regarding the use of a 3 Port and come up with nothing? Try pressing "enter" after you type it in to Google....

Here is an example of the 3-port boost solenoid.

http://www.grimmspeed.com/catalog/pr...roducts_id=163

a lot of newer turbo vehicles run electronics boost control solenoids to regulate boost. Essentially it is all pcm controlled. A couple of manufacturers sell upgraded boost solenoids to allow for more precise boost adjustment, which also allows you to adjust boost along a certain rpm range where as the manual boost control can not do that. If you do a google search of "3 port boost solenoid for evo x" on google, you probably would've found hundreds of websites that would explain this.

Who's the D!*K? The one who said "use Google" or the one who said "use Google"?

My point, admittedly put quite bluntly, is that there are hundreds of posts on Evo M alone on 3 ports. Read up and then ask more specific questions

If you had said that to me I would've thought you were a D1ck too lol. Sarcasm always translates worse through text....maybe you were trying to be funny idk....but I'd say most people would take offense to this.

It was not sarcasm but a comment on someone being too damned lazy to do a search themselves on a widely known quantity. Questions like 'what is a 3 port' is hardly a niche subject

I would say the question asker is the D!ck
