Shrick VGI question?

Recommended Posts

Seen a VGI, it looks to have the flapper that is opened by the vaccume actuator.

But it has no control box that sits between the actuator and the engine vaccume to control the flap opening.

 

Is that controller needed, still available? or is the item junk?

 

Thanks

You mean the solenoid? I believe it was just a cheap Ford part in the original Schrick kit but an R32 SAI or intake flap solenoid will work.

 

If not, you need the following for it to work:-

 

1) The plunger / flap assembly on the intake

2) Electronic rpm switch box

3) Solenoid

4) Vacuum resevoir

5) A connection from the electronic box to the rpm signal in the ECU harness (thin green / black wire).

Thanks Kev, just to confirm.

 

The plunger/flap assembly is a must have Shrick made item I take it - Need to be sure this is present?

The rest can all be sourced aftermarket bits?

 

Just need to be sure I have the essentials.
