Could This Be It?

Guys i now i am pinpointing the boost problem to either a leaky air by pass valve or the charge relief valve. Now i need to know what the symptoms are with a leaky air by pass valve, and charge relief valve. Here is my reason why i think its the airbypass valve. The airbypass valve is the stock blow off valve, you hear it when you let off the gas right but i hear it sometimes when i step on the gas as well, and when this happens my boost is shitty, is that blow valve of mine leaking? or the other thing i can think of is the charge relief valve, because the charge relief valve is supposed to close to to allow the secondary turbo to come on line and maybe my charge relief valve is staying open and thats why i my second turbo doesnt come on line with 10 pounds. Help guys!!!!!! Iam lost!!!!!!!

sounds to me that its your charge relief valve, the crv opens if you are half ont he gas past 4500. but if u backdown to like 3k then floor it it shouldnt open. i got a sticking bov and sometimes it doesnt blow off and sometimes it blows off really weak and sounds like its leaking
