ha ha ha.....a blown head gasket isnt a serious problem huh....well, not too serious...but definitely NOT fun. thats a lot of work and a lot of other shit that ends up needing to be replaced.

Re: boost/vacume leak
the sputtering may be a lack of fuel at those RPMs, since both are close to RPM settings on the AFC (1600 and 2200). Try enriching fuel at those points.
