or use a bren device, tis similar looking to a bleed valve, but has a sprung ball inside, you see the spring at the prefered boost pressure, and it will only open the actuator at that psi, you dont get hardly any spike if atall and it dont leak like a bleed valve.

you can get them for £23 i think from ebay, or apex do them for bout £35 (they are a proper tuning place, prolly better quality.)

Or if you want to be a real farmer giles just hit the actuator rod with a hammer to put a very slight bend in it. It works the same as shortening it but is a little more crude. Takes 20 seconds and is also free

Search mbc valve or mechanical boost controller on ebay and theres loads that will come up if you want to have easy adjustment.
