Default Adjusting Greddy Type-RS BOV

I've noticed that my BOV is leaking boost past ~6psi. Which way should I adjust it so that it remains closed like it's supposed to?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

should be an adjustment screw on top, screw it in a little bit

So screwing it 'harder' (tee-hee) would be the correct way then?

that's right.

There's generally a fine line where crossing it makes the turbo surge....so be careful. Generally if it holds the boost fine and doesn't leak out, you're okay. It'd be nice to be able to test on a dyno, spray it with soapy water or put a balloon on it while boosting in a gear just to see if it opens, ahah.

excellent. I'm scheduled to go for dyno tuning next week-ish, so I'll test it out then to make sure all is well. I've tightened it about 1/4-1/2 turn from what it was, so hopefully that does the trick.

Thanks again!
