My bypass cable has snapped on my supercharger and ever since it has the engine management is on and goes in kino mode. I have repaired the cable but it is adjusted wrong now as I can guess with not enough slack? My car is currently at the garage trying to be repaired but we are having trouble sourcing a replacement Sad ideally I'd like a proper tte one but I'm guessing these are pretty rare! Anyone got any advice on how to fix/adjust properly or where to get a spare? Tried my local lexus main dealer but to no avail Sad please help I miss my 200

Go to a bike shop, it's just like a bike brake cable they should be able to make one up for you

And for future reference for anyone that needs it. The cable length is 4ft this leaves enough excess to play with for adjustment and trimming to exact length. The two cable ends u need are 8mm barell nipple type.
