Bad BOV?

Okay, I searched, and read, and it leads me to think that I have a bad BOV. Here's my situation.

my MBC won't let me run boost levels below 18psi, so I'm being really careful and trying to hit anything over 12psi (it's a stock motor)....ANYWAY, on to the problem.


No matter what boost level I hit, the BOV will only FLUTTER. It will never let off a solid whoosh, like it's suppose to. Now, keep in mind the MBC problem. On occasions I will accidently hit boost levels over 12psi and let off right away, but even at that, it will still only flutter. I'm sure this has been covered before, but I searched it and couldn't find anything to answer my question still. Thanks much in advanced!
