There is nothing to "change" or "tune" on a broadhead that I'm aware of... Have I been missing something for the past 9 years??
I like a traditional two blade broadhead. Magnus Stinger is my favorite. I like it because it can be tuned. The broadhead itself is glued onto the ferrule (the threaded part) that screws into the arrow. Screw on the broadhead and stand the arrow up on a piece of glass or other non marking surface. Not on the wood table by your chair or your wife will not be happy. Yeah I know. Spin the arrow and watch for wobble at the broadhead. Use a candle flame to heat the broadhead glue and twist it a little on the ferrule then recheck. Do this until it spins as true as a Russian ballerina. After that it's one arrow per bullseye unless you just love relfletching arrows.
