Dawes, As it controls the boost , Unlike a spike Valve Erm ,bleed valve

Don't forget, It's not wise to just crank up the boost, Fueling etc may need attention also to prevent the Dreaded Det.

Whats the difference between a dawes and a bleed valve

A bleed valve just bleeds away air from the actuator, Fooling it into seeing less boost pressure so not opening the wastgate when it normally would.
A dawes is a mechanical device (BAll & Spring mechanism) Stays closed (No pressure to the actuator) until the desired boost pressure is achieved, Once achieved it opens & lets air past to open the actuator & release the Positive Boost pressure.

I was told to try and stay away from bleed valve wich is mainly whats on ebay, ordered my dawes from the states as was recomended by a member on here, cheaper than most the the valves on ebay too.
