If you take it apart, look for damage to the seal.

leaking boost?? if anything its stuck open or the spring broke. if the diaphram tears it won't open then you would have a over boost condition. if it's vented to atsmophere you'd here it leaking exhaust, or are we talking about a bov? easiest way to determine if it open is take the hose to the gate off and slowly get on to the car, and if it starts to overboost it's working. if it's stuck open your boost response will suck and it won't boost that high at all.
