Please help.!!

Picked my car up from the shop last night. Had the TC rebuilt and a clutch and flywheel installed. My problem is while I'm driving when I go to shift my boost would usually flutter. So everything was fine driving home. I stopped at a friends house turned off the car for about 20mins then got back in and continued home, idk what happened in 20 mins but on my drive home when I would shift the boost would just plane off. I have a greddy POS recirc bov I've hated it since day one! I popped the hood and took a peek and everything is properly connected. does anyone thing there's a problem with the spring on the bov.?

No.

Maybe you are not used to the clutch.

Ok say I'm driving second gear kinda heavy on the throttle.. and I let off the gas completely I would get a flutter through the intake. Now boost doesn't come on as strong and when I back off the throttlei get no flutter through the intake. Newbie guys sry for not using correct termanology. Mabye I can take a quick video. Its gotta be my bov, intake, or a vacuum line I assume.

So the boost is taking longer to build than before? So slow that you no longer get compressor surge?

I had a leak when I put a DSM flange on the UIP to use the DSM valve and it leaked there. It had the exact symtom yours did and was loud as hell!
Your turbo must have spun to near death to get that much boost since the greddy was stuck onpe!

You think I caused any damage? It drives great now just like before but I'm still not able to bring up to full boost cuz of the fresh clutch.!

I have the same problem of not being able to quickly build boost. I get the flutter if I try to floor it. Only thing I did was take me UIC pipe off and install cams. I hope its just a leak and not my BOV.
