Could a faulty DV cause boost to be leaked back into intake and result in loss of a couple PSI?

Hmmm could that explain my 150mbar deviation between requested and produced boost levels? Any other
symptoms? My DV does not make any honking sounds that so many have mentioned, but I do get a little extra hisssss from the intake when in boost.

Thanks guys. My dealer said all is 100% (yeah right). May be I'll go and get an OEM DV
swap it with mine and see what happens. If boost comes back -> problem found, if not then back to the drawing board. I will replace the DV with a performance one soon anyhow, but I still want to have a good working stock one.
