If the screw adjustment is all the way up, then it will release with less pressure causing it to leak. I have mine half way.

I've found that at that boost pressure, the blitz bov tend to leak, even if it's new.

Neither does mine. I always advise people to get the quietest BOV since the louder it is, the more work it is doing.
