Hey I was trying to tighten my Type S today and instead of turning the stud clockwise, i turned the nut clockwise and i think it somehow stripped the threads inside the bov.

Now when i try to turn the stud clockwise using an allenwrench, it goes in but at one point it pops back out!! The BOV works, but it is at a really soft setting. I just want to know if there is some way to fix this for when i'm ready to start increasing boost levels, or if i totallly pwnz0r3d my new bov.
 
just go with the parts that are stripped to local hard ware store and tell them u need a tap and die set they will hook u up.a tap and die set is for makin new screw holes or screws or fixin ones that are stripped.
