what other mods do you have?
U-pipe? D-pipe?
Might be the wastegate flutter, normal if don't have cats.

are you still boosting the same as before?
Check your boost guage and see if your psi's #'s are off.
might want to check this link out.

i think it might be your bov..i had a bov on my car..and it would flutter because the spring was too hard..try and put your stock bov back on..that's what i did and the fluttering went away..and stock bov is the best because recirculation is the best!! and it could hold up to 18 psi
