BOV question on high mileage EVO

well i've got 125k on my 06 EVO IX MR, and i've got a question about something... should i think about changing my BOV? Do they wear out eventually and need replacing?

I doubt the metal MR valve wears out with that kind of mileage. Maybe further down the line though. If it's not leaking boost, you're probably ok.
