Default Adjusting the line pressure???

Im replacing both A and B shift solenoids tommorow (98 z28 A4 w/ stock trans) and my trans. guy also told me to raise my line pressure. First how would i do this? just turn where the star shaped tool gos into ? Also just by turning where the star shape tool gos into dos that just raise WOT line pressure or everything? and how much should i turn it? any advice is appreciated

It's in the Tuning where you adjust the Line Pressures..

You can do it from the little screw on the PCS I would not go more that 1/4 turn it will raise the line pressure across the board including WOT. We use it to ajjust max line up o down on our dyno to get approx 225 psi max. which should be your goal
