Turn it up then

You have to slacken the locknut, then turn the body (or the other end) clockwise. Go for 1 full turn at a time, (also check you don't leave the tube twisted) compare how much boost increase from last time, then work your way up until you get to a level you like. You may hit fuel cut if you turn it up too much. Do the runs in 4th gear minimum (preferebly 5th).

Make sure your knocklink is quiet, AFR's OK
