wasup all ?!! laugh laugh laugh

I am trying to find if there is a cheap way to get a bleed valve adjusted without openning then bonnet all the time to achieve different boost levels.

Basically what I have in the car at the moment is this

and what I want to be able to do is adjust this from inside the driver bay.

If anyone knows of a way of doing this using a different valve or maybe a way of opening and closing the valve remotely would be a great help,

Thanks for any feedback

just route that in to the car!!!

I think u may have to drill and tap the hole at the bottom to be able to fit a hose on there to route out the air that is bled from the system so it just doesnt go straight into the atmosphere of the cabin

I thought that aswell, but I think distance and pressure plays a very important part in the turbo feed and if its too far, as with anything the pressure will decrease thus causing a lack of performance, I will give it a go tho but am gonna need a hella lot of tubing tho..

Any other ideas??

no shouldnt give u lack of performance as it works on the pressure in the intake system! this should be the same all through the system over any distance
