Boggin Down

So I just got my fmic all installed the other day. But when I accelerate and boost in my lower gears (1st and 2nd) my car boggs down. Like it just loses all power and then catches and its fine. Anybody got any ideas? Most of my clamps are Tbolts and I'm planning on replacing all the worm clamps with Tbolts so they are all good. I'm also planning on doing some welding to replace some of my couplers to prevent boost leak.

Sounds like a boost leak. T-Bolt clamps aren't needed if you have a good bead on your intercooler pipes.

I was thinking the same thing or a wastegate that is acting funny.
