Default have a problem under boost?

just put my new motor in and when i get it to about 5psi it makes a big pop throught the intake then i just let out off it. before i was running 13 psi and no problem the only difference is i have aluminium heads and custom turbo headers.

Need more info. @ what RPM, how much timing are you pulling...(not that I'll be able to directly answer the question, but I know what needs to be asked for the guys that do).

it is about 4500rpm the timing is about 25 btc. the car is runiing rich the meter says it is rich as hell. i never had a problem like this before and just cant figure it out. they say the heads will help with detonation. if pull hard as hell until the pop then i just quit. and the car runs the same after the pop as before.

What turbo are you trying to run...almost sounds like you're getting a compressor surge.
