You want to adjust the valve to the softest position that doesn't allow vacuum leakage. Then leave it alone. If it's too tight, it will cause compressor surge.

well its not going to be loud just revving it as you arent under and real load and making any real boost...but keep it where its at in the middle to prevent boost leak and also prevent compressor surge...I set mine a little harder because i am running higher boost levels, and actually that diaphram inside is only rated to 23 psi...mine blew out after 6 months of 25 + lbs of boost. I just bought another diaphram and its fine. Mine is just as loud as any other typical bov that vents into the atmosphere.
