Finalising your Install
It is important to check for leaks and correct operation as well as listening for compressor surge. This noise is the sound of the boost pressure air running back into the turbo causing cavitation. 
Now the car can be taken for a test drive in a safe environment and listen for the correct operation and that no turbo charger surge occurs

Info
Troubleshooting

The following points should be checked if you find that your engine is dipping below normal idle, stalling or if the BOV is functioning  
poorly. Please note: the following checks will cure 99% of problems experienced with a BOV.  
  1. Check the vacuum hose for splits, cracks, loose connection, kinking or any obstruction – old or fatigued hose may collapse under vacuum causing an obstruction.  
  2. With the engine running remove the vacuum / boost hose from the nipple in the cap of the BOV, there should a loud hissing sound. The engine should idle poorly, double check by covering the end of the hose with your finger – otherwise the hose is blocked.  
  3. Check to see if the BOV is blocked or contaminated with dirt or debris.  
  4. Ensure that the vacuum / boost source is not shared and that the vacuum source is directly from the inlet manifold.  
  5. Check the seal between the charge pipe flange and the BOV. Make sure the supplied O-Rings are installed properly and the BOV Flange is secured on the compressor cover flange with the 3 supplied screws.  
  6. Ensure the spring clamps are secured on silicon hoses and fittings.  
  7. If the valve does not open properly or is slow to react, it could be due to the mapping of the drive by wire system from such things as aftermarket chips and engine tunes. Check with the tuner that the mapping of the throttle is the same as OEM.  
  8. The valve may not open if the engine is just free reved. Check that the valve operates by driving the vehicle. 

Notes
Adjusting your BOV

The aim of the adjustment on the Dual port is to make sure that the piston is hard closed at idle and that the piston closes fast enough to minimise backfiring and not stall the engine. In most cases, the cap is in the correct position from factory.  

INSTALL THE BOV WITH THE FACTORY SETTING FIRST BEFORE PERFORMING ANY ADJUSTMENT.  

Adjustment to the BOV is made by rotating the cap. To increase the spring force on the piston, rotate the cap clockwise in the direction of hard as marked on the top of the cap. To decrease the spring force on the piston, rotate the cap anticlockwise in the direction of soft as marked on the top of the cap - CAUTION - Do not rotate the cap beyond the O-Ring groove. 

  1. Start with the BOV cap at the maximum soft position (The indicator O-Ring should be completely covered by the edge of the cap) 
  2. With the engine at idle the exhaust port should be closed off by the piston – the piston should be hard against the seat and not floating or moving  
  3. Free rev the engine and back off quickly, the engine should return to normal idle speed – if the engine drops below idle or stalls increase the spring tension by one turn  
  4. Repeat this process until the engine free revs and returns to normal idle speed 
  5. Test drive the car and ensure that when decelerating or changing gears that the engine has minimal backfiring and no stalling. If backfiring is excessive or stalling is noticed then check all connections made during the installation, otherwise increase the spring tension.
