Default Boost Solenoid

Is this the metal cylinder with Denson on the label, with 3 nozels 1 at the top left, 1 on the bottom and 1 at the bottom left side ??????

If so, is it correct that all 3 nozels connect to nothing? Just rubber pipes that are open at the ends????

I'm very confused
Thanks

Do you have a manual or electronic boost controller fitted
Pipes fit - Bottom hose to inlet. Side hose to actuator. Top hose to compressor outlet.

The dawes manually controls the pressure at which it boosts,normally leave the oem solenoid connected electrically.

Thanks again morpheous

The reason I ask about the soenoid is because when coming on boost there is a couple of seconds hesitation and then it seems to surge forward in one big lump.

It was suggested that this could be the solenoid but obviously its not....

Any one have any other ideas?
