Some have, some haven't. the non adjustable ones you adjust with a boost controler or dare I say a bleed valve.

Snap-On,

You should of popped along to Worthing today I could of had a look.
dropped a chip into a mates WRX and it was defo hitting 16psi+ as I had a multimeter hooked up to the ECU.

His actuator was also slack and rattling at idle, but he had adjustment.

sorry to hijack my car was seeming a little low on boost had a mess with the actuator which seemed abit loose and shortend the rod by 3 turns it seems a lot swifter now and is just a smudge over .9 bar and peaking just under 1 bar is this safe to do the car is a my94 wrx with a decat and panel filter and is worth resetting the ecu. cheers
