my car is sputtering once it gets to 5psi im thinking my cheap ebay bov is the cause any idea
 
it has godspeed fmic. cheap ebay bov. and stock intake with a k&n air filter. all was on it when i bought it
 
The most probable causes are a boost leak or old spark plugs/wires. If you're in need of a boost leak tester, I highly recommend siliconintakes.com leak testers. Comes with coupler, clamps, and it doesn't leak or pop off under high pressure.

If your wires are old, grab some new ngk wires:

Note: These are technically for 1g's. Only difference is they are cheaper and slightly longer by an inch or so :thumb:

Might as well pick up some ngk bpr6es plugs while your at it and gap them to around .028" or a little lower.
