When I bought mine from Stratmosphere about 2 years ago, they did not have the adjustable model. In fact, mine was the newest model. Then a few months later, they come out with the adjustable style.
When I asked them what I could do about adjusting mine, they said they could sell me an adjusting kit for $60. That was on top of the $135 I had already spent on the BPV!
In the meantime, I stretched the internal spring to "pre-load" the BPV. It seems these BPV's are made for Audi, and Audi's do not create as much vacuum as Saab's do, so the internal spring does not need to be as strong as is required for a Saab.
I do like it though. Just remember to clean and re-lube (with Mobil 1 lube) every year. You'll be surprised how black and dirty it gets inside.
Then again, I'm sure the Saab Bosch # 110 ("Viggen" model) would work equally as well for less than half that price!
