Unhappy How do i test my BOV?

I have a Greddy Blow Off Valve Kit Type S on my 89 T2.
A hybrid Turbo stage 2 pushing 14 pounds @5500rpms.
the BOV does not vent properly any more.

It is softer and longer in duration of relief.
My boost gauge is connected in to the vac line and it still reacts the same as when it was working correctly.
(ie 14pounds during boost and 22 VAC during decleration so this is a sign of no leakage..)

revs do not drop off as quick as they used to when it was funtioning correctly is another thing i noticed

(check sig for more mods.)
