boost spike

ok, i was driving my car and i can speed up slowly to high rpm's, but if i punch it, it makes my car go kachunk, and the boost spikes to around 1.2 on the pfc. It was running fine before i put a new fuel pump in, could i have gotten some dust in the tank that clogged the fuel filter. Would the fuel filter being clogged make this happen. All the other readings are fine on the pfc.

How would anything with your fuel pump cause a boost spike?

Check to make sure the vacuum line to the wastegate actuator is 100%.

i dont know, i am a retard, but this "spike in boost" is coming at like 3000 rpm with me half on the throttle. Is there anyway something like this could happen because the fuel filter is clogged. The car was running perfect before i put the new fuel pump in, and may have gotten some dirt/dust in the gas tank.
