Adjust the length of the actuating rod.
Shorter is less boost.

the shorter the Rod length, the more boost the car will run before the wastegate opens.

just dis-engage the rod from the wastegate lever, then slacken the lock nut and adjust the arm til it requires about 3mm of you pulling it to hook it back onto the lever (with the wastegate held shut obviously)

then see what boost this goves......any alterations will ideally need a remap though, or you could risk engine trouble

Thats your amal valve mate, a kind of bleed valve altho electrical, mine isnt electricaly working as its unplugged, i was going to take it away completely but its getting used as a non adjustable bleed valve


Basically it draws a little air from and outlet, but not electrically connected, if i was to take it out all together i would need a bleed valve in its place, my boost is more controlled by my actuator, if you shorten the length of the rod it increases boost, longer the rod and less boost as said above

Be carefull and watch your boost gauge, you dont want too much without getting it properly set up
