okay i just put my grainger valve on my car... not sure if i have it on backwords or not.. but i have it dialed in at like 13.5-14psi but it doesn't come on till like 3.4k just like stock would do except being only 12psi...

did I do something wrong or is this how its sappossed to work?
I was under the assumption that I could have dialed in at 14psi and get 14psi at 2k or whatever rpm it wouldn't matter...

It takes exhaust volume to spool the turbo. You're not gonna get 14 psi at 2k rpm.

so it is on correctly then and not backwords... cause i have it tightened all the way and the one site i read said loosened all the way for low boost....

also i think my vent hole is sucking air in...?

I put it on the other way and loosened like most of the way, the hole wasn't sucking air in but I overboosted so i tighened it all the way and saw 17+psi... so I guess I had it on the right way before
