Default boost issue need help!

Ok so yesterday I decided to wash my engine bay.. covered the alternator, fuse box, air filter, and battery. While I was scrubbing I think accidentally rubbed my hand against the boost controller **** and turned it, don't know which way exactly. Now it's sputtering and bogging at boost peak.. tried adjusting while making passes but sill can't get it right. Can anyone tell me a good strategy to getting back the way it was? This is on a 06 rsx type s with full race turbo kit btw

Do you have a boost gauge and do you know what psi you were tuned at? IF you actually accidentally changed the boost controller I would assume you went higher then the tune was tuned for but I would come closer to thinking you got water in the filter. My built Cobalt would sputter like that on full boost if the filter got wet. I would at least try a dry filter before messing with the boost controller again.
