I need one of these solenoids
 
I saw a few guys on ebay selling these solenoids to switch from high to low boost. All it does is either: let air flow through or not flow through with an electronic switch. On/Off sort of thing. Does anyone know where I can get one of these besides on ebay cause I know that If I can find them the'll be 5 times cheaper than egay.

do a search on the forced induction forum, jeff did a write up on a button he did to cut his boost in half.

The basics of it.. set your waste gate for 5psi. then, when you open the valve, you bleed off 5 more psi, making it 10psi total. it's really simple.

I already know how to do it but thanks anyways, I just can't find a good solenoid, the one in the link looks really cheap and he charges 30 for it, I know I can get a good one for that price.

use a purge solonoid... the valve next to the map sensor in a 4g civic. the can on top of the valve is an air filter that can be pulled off - you'll be left with a valve that switches between two ports. connect the (switched) side port to your waste gate and the top and bottom ports to a boost source or MBC or whatever.
