The old version has an adjustment screw so you can adjust the spring tension.The newer unit does not.I am ssuming he has the newer unit which means it is non adjustable.You can take it apart and try to use different spriings but you might do more harm then good.If boost forces the valve open prematurely then you will lose power! If you cant hear the valve it is probably not connected to a good vacuum source or maybe your not making enough boost.
