Default AMAL valve

thought it best to start a new topic instead of continuing to hi-jack another post
I've noticed recently that my boost has dropped from 2.1bar to 1.5 I understand that such a pressure can break the amal valve? and to check this i need to make sure it "clicks?" when are they supposed to click
Also i've heard of the amal valve being replaced by a beed valve?? is this possible/recommended?

You can check the valve works by unplugging and plugging back in, when engine running, it will click quite loudly if working.You can fit a bleed valve in between the actuator and the turbo front snail, make sure u check boost after fitment carefully tho, buckets of will power will be required !, hope this helps
