ok heres the deal, i just bought a new cyclone intake with everything you need to hook it up. the original blue/ white vaccum canister thats hard as hell to find, as well as two solenoid's. i'm just curious on how the heck to hook them up. i've searched and searched and have only found ways to "modify" around this by getting rpm swtiches and what not but i have the jdm ecu 6260 so i wanna hook it up with that. so my question is how do all the vaccum lines hook up from the intake to the canister to the solenoids to the butterfly actuator??? plus the wiring??
 
If you searched the boards you'd have found this information easily.

The vac. lines go like this: Intake vac. source -> vac. canister -> solenoid -> butterfly

If you have a JDM ECU you should make sure you are connecting the right solenoid to the right connector. I'm thinking there should be a difference in the japanese vs us harnesses. I'm not sure you can just swap the ECU in and have it work.

I've connected mine through the evap solenoid but I have custom code for my EPROM.
 
if you have a jdm ecu you will also need the wiring harness that goes with it.. you would be better off getting a chip from dsm chips that uses the fprs to do the butterflys... I have it hooked up with a rpm swithch there is no difference in how you do it unless you are doing it just by boost. So i would advise doing it one of those ways.
 
Yeah thats how i have mine set at. but the one advantage to having the rpm switch is that depening on the size of the turbo you can hold them shut longer or open soon depending on prefrence.

Could you post the whole part number?

I'm a little concerned that you're going to post up MD166260. This is a single board, 91-91 dsm turbo ecu, and will not have the provision to run the cyclone set-up.

The good news is that if your MD166260 ecu is an e-prom, keydiver can make you a chip that will make the cyclone system work seamlessly with that ecu.

The other good news is that you won't have the overly aggressive (and somewhat knock prone) ignition timing curves that the jdm ecu's seem to have. I have heard of several people who have some issues trying to run jdm ecu's on what passes for pump fuel here in the states.
 
i'm just not sure on how to hook it all up with the two solenoids i was given? and i was just gonna run it off the EGR so it would open at 4100rpm but i don't know what solenoid to hook it up to since i was given two.
 
What will happen if you use the E931 USDM code with the Cyclone manifold? secondary Butterflies wont open?

And how do you plan to send it power at 4100 rpms? The egr is signaled to come on at 3k which is well before you want the valves to open so. again i would just do it one of those ways. I went through all of this already and many arguments on how it works and so far the best way i was told was to either get the chip from dsm chips or use the rpm switch. either or those ways will be much easier than doing it is a really great manifold you just have to get it set up porperly. Other wise you are going to hate it.
