Default Possible Boost Leak / Slight Shudder

Right before the car goes into boost there is a clicking noise and an ever so slight shudder. Doesn't seem to want to hit peak boost. There are no CEL's on so I am not sure where to start. Possible boost leak?

Or:

One of the coil packs was just replaced, do you think this could be an issue.

Your thoughts?
