if ive been reading this correct the answer is no, as the bleed valve bypasses the ecu settings for boost, am i right? so the only thing needed to sensibly run a bleed valve is to adjust the fueling screw on the throttle body, yeh?
no your wrong, a bleed valve does not bypass settings for the ecu,the ecu takes its reading from the inlet manifold,therefore if your running over 10psi whether bleeding it or actuator wound in its still gonna read over 10psi at the inlet,so if your wanna run more than 10psi of boost without hittin the boost limiter then you will need a chip
