RICH WILD,

You are right, of course, the best place to fit a bleed valve on a closed loop boost controlled car like the scooby is most certainly not "on the car". At all, that is.

See the superchips thread.

Where on Earth can i get myself a bleed valve? Every man and his dog seem to advertise dump valves but I have yet to see an ad for a bleed valve. Where would be the best place to fit one? (don't say "on the car!"). I'm not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to turbos, so I'd need to know exactly which pipe to connect it to.
Please help.

Cheers

Richard

 

Rich,

Take a look at Lee's site:

 

Hi Moray,

I know alot about turbo's etc but please could you explain closed loop and why this is dodgy with a bleed valve,is it ok with an evc.
thanks paul

 

paulw,

Assuming you mean an HKS EVC, you wouldn't need a bleed-valve because you have spent a load of cash on an uprated closed loop boost control system... so you can just adjust that to increase the boost level... just make sure the ECU and fuelling system can copy with increased boost level correctly.
