sputtering under boost, plugs?

Like I said in the 1st post, it ran fine but I started to get boost leaks. I think when I fixed the boost leaks, I may have created new problems. I will check the injectors and boost leaks tonight.
 
Well, after getting my head out of the clouds I decided to boost leak test my car last night. I realized that if I hold the boost leak tester at a certain angle, it wont let air go through and it seems like I dont have a boost leak. Well, I did. Me and slowpokin pulled my rail and found that one of my injectors were bolted down crooked and ripped the insulator ( I should not be working on my car at night by myself trying to hold the flashlight with one hand and put things together with the other) . The tip of the injector was also damaged but we were able to salvage it. We fixed the boost leak at the injector and took it for a drive. Ran great till we got on the highway and my coupler from the turbo popped off. We had to pull into the hood to fix it. We get it on and are back on our way to the house. I give it gas right before I get to my house and it popped off again! Damn hoseclamps with this fmic kit!!! I am going to a marine store today to get one t-bolt clamp for my turbo. Other than the boost leaks from shitty clamps, runs good.
