Default adjustable BOV
Picked up an adjustable BOV from Ebay. I have it set at the softest setting, but the spring tension is still HARD as hell. Even pushing on the piston with my finger takes alot of pressure. Does boost actually move the piston alot? I have a low boost 6 psi setup. Is this BOV gonna work?

Most dump valves will open with very little boost as they're vacuum activated, some will even draw air at idle.
