Default Need some help

Ok so I pulled my header off to do my clutch swap and my dumbass breaks my O2 sensor on it some how. I got a universal BOSCH from Advanced and put it in. My car runs fine, but sometimes when I turn it off and turn it back on it will start acting up when i first start to drive. If I give it gas it will sometimes hit about 3,000 rpms and then act like its hitting a rev limited and bounce, but VERY slowly. After about 3-5 second of bouncing off 3K it will rev fine.

If I try to drive I generally only get about 10 feet before it starts to act up. I have to push the clutch in and give it a few revs and then its fine, but its only if the car sits for like 5-10 minutes. If it sits overnight its fine to drive right when i start it.

Like i said the ONLY thing i changed is my O2 sensor. They idiots at Advanced said that they cannot be sure that it is my O2 sensor because my check engine light isnt on. I told them that its the ONLY thing done to the car. I drove the car with the broken O2 sensor home but once I got home I had to pull it out and replace it and that is the DAY it started.

It sounds like my O2 sensor correct?
