Default Installing 3 port

Hi iv just bought a MAC 3 port solenoid.

Do I hook it directly as the 2 port or is there something else that needs to be done?

Looks like one the ports on the 3-port is an exhaust..

should it be set up as normally closed or open ?

anyone?

The extra port is a vent and can be plumbed back into the air intake before the turbo if so desired. As the standard unit is only a 2 port jobbie, it's not really necessary to do this.

Iv added some pics comparing the 3 port to the stock 2 port.

So which lines go where ?

the right hand side on the 3 port is laberlled the P (pressure side?) 1, middle is number 3 and left is number 2.
