Yea that's what I'm talking about!

The sound on both those cars is awesome. I love the adjustablility of the electric valves and that is exactly what I am looking for. I'm guessing there is probably some kind of pressure switch or other that can be used to open up the valves at a certain rpm, or at least "when you really get on it".

I have used $30 adjustable pressure switches to control when a watermister would squirt water on the outside of a turbo intercooler on saabs and it works great once you get it dialed in where you want it (switch was on turbo vacuum line and turned on at a certain psi of boost which was adjustable). There must be something similar that could be done here (maybe just have it in a vacuum line?).

Does the valve have "presets" such as 1/4, 1/8 etc. or do you just judge that yourself? Ideally the valves could be preset at 1/4 for example and then the pressure switch would kick it on at 4000 rpm or whatever you preferred. That would be sweet!

I skimmed the post you referred to and am really looking forward to reading it in detail!
