all sounds ok to me. just need to wind in the actuator to get more boost. 2 turns from zero pre load will more than likely make no difference. just be patient and keep turning 2 turns at a time and rechecking your boost.

i assume from your username that you're running this engine in a DAX Rush? in that case, i think you'll find 12 psi sufficient for a while.

the amal valve clicking will not happen if you have a Level 2 ECU from a 3 door engine, but as you have a 4x4 engine I presume you are running the 4x4 Level 8 ECU.
