Z32 guys, MBC install, check my work and solenoid question

JWT is in, now it's time for the MBC seeing as how the ECU didn't come with the jets. I'll be doing the same thing that this guy did and using the stock hoses that run to the actuators.

http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300z...and-stuff.html

-Add 1/4" barrel connectors to the stock hoses on either side
-Run a hose from one side to the other thus "closing" the loop.
-Run a hose from the nipple on the hard pipe to the other nipple on the hard pipe on the other side, "closing" the 2nd loop.
-Cut each "loop" in the middle and insert a T fitting in each "loop"
-Run a hose from each T to the MBC.
-Disconnect solenoids on either side.
Done


Question I have is, seeing as how the solenoid is now bypassed, is there really a need to disconnect them? Are they still connected somewhere in the system somehow by a T fitting?

I will gladly send you some cashola if you are parting with boost jets for the JWT pop upgrade.

ETA when I may be able to have them?

Hmm, they aren't JWT, they are Z1. which are probably the same one... I will have them as soon as Z1 credits my account (which was supposed to be done today) so I can order my ECU from them, which come with boost jets, however, i have an EBC so I won't need them.

Will they hold boost around 13ish psi? Don't really care what brand they are as long as they hold boost at the right psi lol.

Different cars will boost different amounts with the same jets. The jets that were supposed to give me 14.5psi from JWT ended up getting me a nice 16psi... some people get less.
