To keep the valves open:

- Start and put in Sport +
- Blip throttle to open
- Crawl under and unplug both actuators

They will remain in their last position until hooked back up.

You can buy a connector plug (or just seal the end up with tape) to keep dirt from getting it it, then just zip tie harness out of the way.

Found plug blanks for the actuators

I've done this on my M2 and X3M
Why do all of that though? Isn't easier to just press the + when you turn the car on? Just seems like a lot of work to keep valves open all the time.
