Will be fine, but will need to put 3rd outlet back into the engine bay, or your'll have a air hissing noise once on boost.

MAF equipped cars like Radder's Pulsar need the third port piped back into the intake after the MAF.

Seriously though, the bleed valve on my car only goes to and from :

actuator to bleed valve to inlet before throttle bodies and just vents off..

there is a pipe from the MAF, but Im fucked if I can see where that goes to in the dark

im no expert here, but want to put my 2 pence worth in.

surely if you put the vent from the bleed valve behind the maf, when the turbo spools up it will be under pressure thats lower than atmospheric, say 0.2 bar. will this not fuck about with what pressure is seen at the actuator if its been set up with the vent seeing 1.0 bar of pressure (atmospheric)?

There should be a small hose coming off the black plasticyrubbery hose between the maf and the turbo inlet.
