    you need 2 sets of male and female 2 pole Bosch junior type connectors (one set for each solenoid), you need to connect your NC (normally close) switch in series with the solenoid.

    Can't find the PM button Mel, but anyway I ordered them through Rick Donker's website, www.rdae.nl

    Maybe stating the obvious, but make sure the Amp rating is sufficient for the unit that you are planning to use.

    You Need 2 set.
    First you disconnect Both valves electrical 2 Pol jpt 2 Pol connectors (Use a very smal screwdriver to disconnect the Clip )do. this without removing bumper .open only airfiltercase .turn on ignition and you can messure 12 Volt between Brown/white + and brown - of the 2 Pol jpt plugs
    Plus is brown/White +
    Ground is Brown - from ecu switching rpm
    Take Both Bown /White to the Input of Printboard to + and also direct to the valves(+)
    Ground from Frame of the car to Print (-)please take a good grounding Point for correct funktion
    Now take Both Brown wire to (com) on printboard
    The (NC ) from printboard to valves.
    So If you Start the car the exhaust valves workes Original 2 Second Open than closed.
    I take the other output of the printboard so my valves allways Open by starting the engine .and i Love it
    If you have an electrician.he can do. this job in 1 hour.
    Have fun!!!!!
    Now its wintertime you have 4 month time

    Right thanx Alois !

    Where do you install the box ? The Forza is too close to hot exhausts imo.

    I plan to install the box under the left CF engine board with longer wiring.

    But must wait on the devices coming from China :D

    Great information! I used to disconnect plugs manually with my 360 when wanted to have more noise. This solution works also on 360.

    Have anyone done this with 458Spider? I’m interested to know if there is easy access to plugs.

    I installed Forza controller myself. You can do it without removing bumper though it is a little tight. LOVE being able to open or close with a remote control. No codes. Whole thing took about an hour or so to do. Watch the little clips on the plugs as they can easily be dropped. I used a long grasping tool for removal and reinstallation to hold them. Worked like a charm.

    [/QUOTE]Hi jariT

    I have just plugged the lines on my 488.

    Did it myself took about an hour to do but fairly straightforward.

    If you search I wrote a thread on it a couple weeks back on here

    Regards

    Michael

    Sorry for the delay in replying. I know there are other folks who have posted installs but I thought I'd add mine as well. Start by removing the left side engine cover:

    Remove the metal clips on the two plugs with a needle nose pliers or a pry tool. It helps to have some sort of a grasper to help so you don't drop the clips. When reinstalling the plugs, you can preplace the clips back on the plug end and just snap them back on.

    Some useful tools here, pry bar for reaching down to help release the clip and grasper so I didn't drop it. However, I still managed to drop one. It landed on the diffuser tray but I was able to fish it out through the space between the exhaust tip and the actual muffler tip using the magnetic tool and the grasper. This is NOT a mandatory nor planned step of the installation;).

    I asked my dealer to plug the vacuum lines as I've seen on these forums- the maintenance guy and sales manager said they wouldn't do it. Mtc guy said that it will make the exhaust run hotter and over time may lead to issues. That was his opinion. Given that this is my first true exotic i'm going to listen to him- but i'm sure it's fine as just about everyone has been saying- just with my 1st I am going to be cautious.

    The controller is really nice because sometimes you want it open all the time (joy rides) and other times you don't (in the neighborhood, passing police, etc...) Loved having the remote to adjust on the fly. Truly, when just tooling around town at low RPM, the engine drones on quite a bit. Can get annoying, but it's great to have when you are in a more racy mood.

    Nice little install there. I might have to do this. I was thinking about doing my hatless down pipes and keeping the stock exhaust. hoping that it would keep the sound some what nice mixed with this mod.
