question about turbosmart dual port bov.

OMFG, I got it in the mail its at home while im at work right now. I dont get my accessport replacement dongle until friday. Is it risky if i put it on today? i want to make sure my car is boosting properly. I'm worrying about the spring tension, will it need to be adjusted?

Check out the mitsubishi install download. At the bottom there are instructions on how to properly set the spring tension.
I asked the same question when i first got my dual port.

So i got the whole spring stuff down. I'm having another issue now...Clearance

I have an aem intake and its not really sitting properly.

As you can see in the picture, my bov is rubbing against the strut and the box. when i sit in my car i can hear the bov hitting the strut. Anyone have any recommendations? i was thinking about possibly putting something that doesnt let the bov hit the strut or the box, i just dont know what.
