If you have a new sender you just need to get very small screw driver and turn screw on side up 1/4 turn. I no it sounds mad but thats what i do and TVR . TVR at its best :-)

Remove air box, sender is under lower part of air box fixed to body of car you may find it easy to take two screws out that fix it to the body. There will be a hole on top or side of unit, there should be a hex screw or small flat edge screw turn this in very small amounts till you reach say 25psi idle and 45-55 psi at 5000rpm. Also remember to keep air flow sender on air box connected when running.
