Cobb 04-07 Subaru STI / 02-07 WRX / 04-08 FXT 3-Port Boost Control Solenoid
The Cobb 3-Port Boost Control Solenoid (MPN 712750) replaces the factory 2-port unit on turbocharged Subarus, fitting 2002-2007 Impreza WRX, 2004-2007 Impreza WRX STI, and 2004-2008 Forester XT models. This upgrade vents excess boost pressure to atmosphere for sharper response and consistent pressure delivery. Drivers gain improved turbo spool, reduced lag, and stable power across the rev range with proper tuning.
Key Features
- 3-Port Design: Vents boost pressure directly to atmosphere, enabling faster actuation and tighter control than 2-port OEM solenoids.
- Direct OEM Replacement: Plug-and-play fit using factory connectors and mounting points, no cutting or fabrication required.
- Brass Body Construction: Corrosion-resistant brass housing with EPDM diaphragm withstands high pressures and heat for extended service life.
- Quick Response: MAC valve technology delivers rapid open/close times, supporting higher boost levels and precise tuning.
- Tuning Compatibility: Integrates with Cobb Accessport maps and ProTunes for optimized boost curves on EJ25/EJ20 turbo engines.
Product Notes
- ECU tuning required to realize full boost control potential and avoid overboost conditions.
- Inspect vacuum lines during install replace brittle hoses for peak performance.
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Disconnect battery before swapping route vent line away from exhaust heat.
- Mounts to factory bracket with included hardware torque solenoid nuts to 10 ft-lbs.

Forced Induction
Forced induction systems encompass every method of pushing air into an engine at greater than atmospheric pressure, including turbochargers driven by exhaust energy, superchargers driven mechanically by the crankshaft, and prochargers using centrifugal designs belt-driven at higher ratios than traditional roots-type blowers, with each approach delivering a significant increase in air mass per cylinder fill that allows proportionally more fuel to be burned and more power to be produced without increasing engine displacement. Adding 10 PSI of boost pressure to a naturally aspirated engine can increase power output by 50 to 70 percent depending on the engine's breathing efficiency and the quality of the supporting hardware, making forced induction the most power-dense modification available relative to cost and complexity. This collection covers complete forced induction systems, turbocharger and supercharger hardware, intercoolers, blow-off valves, wastegates, and supporting component...
