The car has 18500 on it now. So from your post I would have to say no because when cruising in 5th and then go to pass someone it will do it.

I have a feeling it could be the actuator. But i am not sure not really to bothered as I will be fitting a ams gt35r in a few weeks.

Sorry just a little of topic just had to say it.
Ok everyone thanks for all the help trying to solve the problem.
Now for the solution to the problem............and a lesson learned.
The Lesson
Make sure your instruments are working correctly. Namely your boost gauge.
I replaced my boost gauge and WTF... the new one was showing that I was boosting 25psi. the old one was showing 20psi. Lowered boost and what do you know no more fluttering..... its amazing.

So....what exactly is causing these cars to buck at 25#+ ?. I'd like to understand. Is it a fuel delivery problem, is it the WG...or what? When the thread starter wants to finally go to the track and run more than 25# boost will he run into this same problem? I mean, the problem will reappear if he cranks up the boost past 25# won't it?

Change your boost controller.
Change your boost controller.
Problem has been solved............ Its not my boost controller it was my boost gauge.

My car never bucked just the BOV fluttered. The BOV was doing its job.... the stock one that is

Your boost guage did not cause your BOV to flutter, genious. In fact your BOV was not fluttering at all.
You were overboosting due to the cheap parts you bought and or installed incorrectly. Autometer is crap, especially when you install the cheap plastic hose and not a real vacuum line and barb.

As for Autometer being crap thats your opinion and like A$$Holes everyone has one. And just for the record I am using real vacuum hose not the plactic stuff.



after Al tuned my car. I have a 1g but its not crushed. I was thinking I should crush it
