This is because its too tight, its not opening at idle, your ECU is reading low air. The ecu Is dumping fuel, causing a rich fuel trim.
You can take the BPV right out, hook it up to your manifold line, take the cap off, start the car, adjust until the piston is fully opened. put the cap back on. put the BPV back on the charge pipe, discount your battery for 15 mins and hook it back up.

100% sure it is hooked up correctly, used the same hoses that were on the Bosch valve. Might have to swap the Bosch valve back in and try adjusting it the way you've suggested, seems like much less of a headache.
The fact it was opening over 4k rpm is what made me think I had to go tighter. My logic told me the boost was overpowering the spring. I guess this is wrong though? Or maybe the blue spring is too soft?
I'm on stock cats, last dyno showed just over 9lbs of boost.
Before lunch I'm going to take a look at the valve while its idle and see if it is indeed closing. Pretty sure its holding open though.
Really appreciate the help guys
Edit : seems at the current tight setting the piston is about 80% open at idle. I can see a bit of it peeking through the hole. What's weird is when I go softer, it idles worse. Should I reset the computer (disconnect battery) after each adjustment?
