Look up the manual for it and it should tell how you to adjust it and lower the boost via the controller.

you can do this by turning down the gain on the boost controller assuming its electronic. however, depending on what your wastegate spring is set at you may not be able to achieve a lower psi without changing out the spring. ex. if the spring is 15psi you cant set the boost to 12, without changing the spring. hope it works out for you
