SV08 - Is Flow Ratio normally this low?

Picked up an SV08, have been going through the calibration process before putting it to work,

I have calibrated my E-steps, and found that my E steps were slightly over extruding, so I adjusted the rotation_distance to 6.44 from 6.5

Running the Flow Ratio calibration test in Orca using the Archimedean chords and I had to lower my Flow Ratio from .98 all the way to .9 for just basic PLA (Sunlu).

This this normal? I have three other printers (Bambu Labs P2S) and none of them drop below .97 for any filament.

How to unclog the creator 5?

I can't find any info on how to unclog the creator 5

I see some people are just saying to disable clog detection, which I don't want to do.

Creator 5 is constantly offline despite being turned on and connected to the network.

Been struggling to use my new creator 5, I'm using it in LAN mode.

The Flash Studio program says its offline after every print.

I have to go and unbind the printer, then re-input the DeviceID LAN only code, then sometimes it comes back online.

Why can't I use Silk & PLA on the same print?

"Only materials of the same type can be selected"
Why can't I print with both PLA Silk and regular PLA?

How loose should the extruder gear pressure screw be?

I'm talking about the screw that is right next to the PTFE tube. Loosening this screw loosens the grip on the filament as it's going through the extruder gears.

I've heard online that it should be unscrewed one to two rotation but I'm curious what other people have done. Leaving it fully tightened seems to lead to the extruder motor overloaded error quite a lot.

How to fix this ring of bad layers on my PETG print?

Print is at the top of the dome, this ring about 80% up the dome is always bad looking.

The rest of the dome is perfect.

I've dried the PETG, I've fully calibrated all settings in Orca slicer.

Attached are my settings in Orca

My guess would be that since I'm not supporting the area under the top of the dome (please do not reccomend I do supports here they are unnecessary) the area is the beginning of the 'Internal Bridge'

Just look at the pictures for more details but:
