Default How do you tell if your BOV is adjusted correctly??

I'm wondering if my BOV is not setup right since I keep having boost bleed off up top. How do I determine if my BOV is bleeding off boost?

thanks

I just listen to set mine. A WOT run next to a concrete barrier or something where you can hear the car.

When my BOV open under boost it is LOUD. I just thread in a turn and go again.

Rinse-repeat until you run out of adjustment (you have issues) or no longer hear the boost pissing out.
