4. And me and the wife did some DIY 2 day and made a shed for the bikes.  Nice bit of kit, if you haven't already I'd seriously recommend fitting a couple of ground anchors and some decent chains. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:

You only need one or the other. What are you using to control the valve? Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

I was chatting to nic about it at the RR day and he sent me an email with a link for that control valve, and said to give him a shout but as he has now gone AWOL i am a bit stuck. He was saying i can have it on a switch, so when it's on it will be at whatever PSI the bleed valve is set to, but I can't remember what he said about blocking one of the outlets on the control valve.

Ahh. Well in that case you are just using it to control two boost levels, so it can be connected as you say. What you can actually do with these valves (and what I'm doing) is use the valve as a bleed; it's varied by different frequency signals from the ECU or boost control unit.
