OK so after i had my car in the shop they fixed the Idle air control valve. idles fine now. only thing is when i boost and the bov goes off or i rev the engine the temp guage moves and stutters. its reading the temp fine(so i guess) but is that ok and normal. is that just a lose connection somewhere .(BTW i have a KOYO alum rad) should i look into it asap or not worry . i checked the fluid and the rad and over flow tank are both the same for the last week. any thought, comments?? thanks

Check the Temp sensor, the connection may be loose, mine was and the gauge would fluctuate all over the place.
