should i tune blow off myself?
Yesterday i installed AA bov kit and when i put the vacuum line on the bov's nipple, and started engine,the bov's opened on idle and when i floored the gas it wasn't produced proper whoosh sound? So i thought may be i need to adjust it myself?
AA owners please help?

It does not need adjusting if it's installed correctly.
You need to build boost to get a "whoosh". There is not much load at idle. Drive the car and see how it performs. |

Closed while revving. Open fully when heavy throttle is released. (assuming it functions like a Tial). When in doubt AA is more then welcome to offer troubleshooting and customer service/support for their products. |

My AA BOV would be partially open on warm up and idle too, and as Jeff mentioned you won't hear a whoosh if you rev it while in neutral.
