How about removing the bleed valve thing completly. At least you'll know it's not fecking up your boost level.

STi Version 2 will be running a 6K ECU as per the STi 555 V-Ltd (same car but blue).

Mapped to run 13.64psi/0.95bar boost as standard.

It depends how the bleed valve is plumbed regarding what boost it will run with it closed.
Personally I would remove it and ensure the boost control solenoid is plumbed as below :


If it doesn't run the correct boost after that then the bleed valve may of been fitted to mask a faulty boost control solenoid or a car running in limp home / safe mode
