Reply to "ps3 upgrade for UP Turbine"

Chances are I can fix your PS-2 3V audio amp to restore sounds.  PS-3 will not run a PS-2 Slave board.  The PS-32 repair board will; which could get you the PS-3 sound file.  That would be a better approach than going full PS-3 in the lead unit.

Audio amp fix would be much cheaper though.

Early PS-3 do use slave boards and require a tether.  But the slave board is a PS-3 slave, not PS-2.  It also incorporates a Tach reader, so it operates different than the PS-2 versions.

MTH did decide to do away with PS-3 Slaves and never made a PS-3 Slave kit like they did with PS-2.  What you have is two PS-3 engines run as a MU or lashup.  That does do away with tethers.  I would also say, if upgrading a PS-1 Turbine going this route is necessary as it is a pain routing 10 pin harness through the 4 pin type the PS-1 used.  Requires grinding on trucks and a custom length harness.  G
