yeah, the stock gauge is not accurate at all, it might say 14psi, but might really be near 20 which will cause your car to pull timing like crazy in an attempt to not blow your motor. Running too much boost can also cause sputtering and all kinds of other nastyness as well. Id suggest to turn the boost back to stock until you get a real gauge.

ight ill try that and see what happens

Edit: ok i turned the boost down as far as my controller ould got, it helps some, but once i get into boost thats when the car starts to sputter. Tommorow im gonna change my pil and put 10w30 back in it and ill see if that hlps since i didnt start having these problems till i put the thicker oil and lucas additive in.
