I’m not shore if the idle valve on an Escort is exactly the same spec as a 2wd Saff but I use 40Hz for these solenoids using an Autronic ecu. I haven’t run the stock boost valve threw the Autronic so have no idea on that one.

I was thinking of using that one, ive heard a lot about it. I think my EMS will do it though, so I might use that. If it doesnt work the way I want it to, Ill use the HKS.
