Default wtf is up with my hks!

still having problems with the hks dump valve, every time it goes off it sounds like some one breathing with ashma in a high pitch way? its also VERY quiet as a m8 who has a forge blow off was louder than mine. i double checked the fittings and its all correct. anyone got any ideas?

How far is the adjuster hut nut at the back screwed out/in? When I fitted mine it didn't work at all, but on adjusting the nut with two spanners it's fine.

the only website I know of is www.hkseurope.com

Mine sits about 4mm out. Is the body loose? To tighten it, use allen key on the mounting bolts on the front, or try twisting it on the base to see if thats the problem mate??
