Blitz blow off valve adjsutment

Anyone know what is wrong with my blow off valve, i dont know if i need to tighten it or loosen it, Im definately loosing alot of my boost becasue of it, in first geat ill prolly see like 3-4 psi and then as im about to shift into second its like the charger stops workin and goes -10 on the vacum until i let off the gas and punch it again and once im into second gear i may see 5lbs but thats about it, I dont even hear the valve go off anymore. In third gear ill hit like 7lbs when im supposed to be seeing 11-12. I could definately hear the boost leakin out of the bov, I've tightened down all the way and tried adjusting it from there but nothing seems to work. Anyone know how to adjsut this blitz bov? COuld my bov be broken?

if you loosen the 10mm nut and tighten the bolt down then you should be fine no more leaks. If you leak then the valve might be stuck open. Your BOV is probably damaged.
