Lost 5 psi of boost on my SQR Stage 3 CSE?

Hi All,
I have a '97 CSE, with a full JT 3" exhaust, Group9 intercooler, modified
air box with K&N and Frank's stage 3 s/w.
Up until recently, the motor would produce peak boost of 24 psi and sustained
boost to around 21 psi, it was very strong.
A couple of weeks ago, the motor began to only produce about 16 psi.
New plugs, gapped at .9 mm, still ran 16 psi.
I reset the ECU by disconnecting the battery for a couple hours, went out
to do adaptation runs and after a couple of large boost excursions, it
settled back to 16.
Added some octane boost (run Sunoco 93), no improvement.
Changed fuel filter, no change.
I installed a HX Hyperboost BOV around the same time this started.
Could the BOV reduce max boost?
Any other ideas to get my beast back?
Thanks,
jj
