After 5 days, the Clutch is installed and working like a champ!
I Nearly cried when we started the car and pushed the pedal in, and it went straight to the floor followed by a pop. Turned out the TOB was not fully seated in the cage/what ever in the pressure plate. Just took some man-handling with the clutch fork to push it backwards, then standing on the clutch pedal to snap the TOB into place.
That **** was scary.
Will probably never attempt this instal again. I'm sure Eric wont either.
Huge thanks to everyone that helped out!

sorry but thats crazy. Road tuning a 500-700whp car out here is dangerous and asking for trouble with the local pd... The inconsistent roads making irregular logs along with that danger factor aren't for me and especially for $300...

idle its 17 and probably higher. AEM only reads to 17. driving, normal cruising its bounces around between 15.5 to13 or so, sometimes higher. stepped on it a couple times to see where my boost was at, its reading in 12 and 13s and spiking at 30. never held the peddle down to see where it tapers of to. just wanted to see where it was spiking. turned down the boost control and hopefully it wont spike. the car jerks and is very loopy right now.
dont think the car likes driving around untuned with the tial bov either

That ams cold air intake is a 3 inch maf housing. And you shouldn't be driving around with the boost controller until your ready for a tune. Your bov is going isn't going to be leaking like the stock one. Those 3 things already causing your car to act the way it is.
