What kinda boost issue - too much or not enough?

With the boost controller maxed out, we were barely getting to 21 psi. The car was at about 320/320 hp/tq, which is a bunch off from where an FP Green should be running on 100 octane.
So Mike's looking for boost leaks today... could be in my intercooler piping, perhaps one or two of those T-bolt clamps just don't fit quite right and are leaking under boost. Or it could be my stock BOV is finally giving up the ghost and can't hold the pressure. And the last possibility, is that my up-pipe isn't flowing enough so my boost is actually exhaust limited, but I'm thinking that's the less likely scenario.
So, they'll pressure test the intake and find any leaks, but I'm leaning towards the issue being the BOV. Since I've got a Hydra, there's no reason not to got to a simpler vent-to-atmosphere BOV that can hold more boost than the stock valve.
