it can be manual.. BUT, if boost control deviates beyond what the ecu is expecting it will drop into limp (actuator pressure) mode. If higher boost is run without checking or other adjustments to fueling and ignition timing, you risk engine damage

ecu control is electronic via N75 valve

i have boost guage n my car and i have noticed something..the car turbo goes in limp mode when the boost guage reaches beyond 15 psi ..so it means the boost can work with 15 psi without goin to limp mode??!!..because i have removed the boost controller from my car coz its not workin properly..so that it will go back like before with the stock turbo..

you cannot overrule the ecu's control over the engine.

get it remapped properly is my advise. dont **** around with bleed valves.

you risk your engine.
