If it always sputters, it will happen if the vacuum line to the BOV has a quink (sp?) in it somewhere. Make sure the line is straight all the way, and route it in a good way. Mine sputters under low boost with a pssssh. But under high boost it screams so loud, PSSSSHHHHH! haha. I love the BOV with this kit. But check that line, thats what was causing mine to do that a few days after I installed the kit.
