if your clutch was slipping it would not cause your car to buck, it would feel like your car is hesatating and you would see a jump in rpms temporarily

boost leak somewhere? check all vaccum lines. and I/C piping. a loose clamp or vaccum line will cause the car to buck.

Check plugs could be misfiring or too rich or too lean, varying ignition timing from bad tune, fuel or even a boost leak etc.

If it popped a clamp or something and that fixed it the first time, did you double check all the hoses/clamps again? The bucking sounds alot like big boost leak.

I've been going through the same problem. Buy a boost leak tester, make sure your plug gap is 0.22-.025, or try swapping your Evo9 dv with your stock dv.
