Is my BOV broke??

[07speed3]

I have the HKS ssqv. today i was going up to the store and everything was fine, then all of a sudden i go to shift i dont here anything then i hear a hissing sound whenever i start to get into boost. Now im barely making any boost and i hear the hissing sound. so my thought was that the vac line came off or there was a hole or something in it. I inspected it and everything looks fine on it. So now im thinking that its the BOV maybe not closing all the way when its supposed to.
Anyone have any thoughts??
Thanks!

This is the second reason to hang on to the stock part. You could swap it in and get a definitive answer to your question.

Are you sure the vacuum line isnt kinked anywhere? The same thing happened to me and then I finally noticed after I rmeoved the vacuum line that it was flattened in the middle.
