It will not affect your tuning or power unless you run high boost (over 22-22) on a stock turbo, where a leaking DV will cause higher turbo speed and therefore higher outlet temps — loss of efficiency. At the same time it needs to leak for good driveability. So tighten it to race, loosen to daily drive.
