Has the map been altered to suit the actuator and turbo?

Maybe the valve is leaking !

Are you sure it's working correctly

You've got what? Essentially you've got 2 dump valves then.. Just one shoves all the noise and air back into the system.
It'll be a Problem with how it's all fitted.

It isn't running right because of your atmospheric DV fitted on your Samco kit, you are messing the fuelling up with it. Keep to your forge recirc and bin the other one.
