Engine/Boost problem.....

hello, about 2 weeks ago i sent my ECU to Vishnu in cali, to get reflashed, i have a 3' Invidia DP, Invidia g200, and the 3' RMR test pipe.... Last sunday i was driving my car and whenever i pushed to full throttle in a 2nd gear roll at lke 30mph, and the RPMs went up but at about 3.5 thousand it like stopped for like a .0001 of a sec and then FLEWW up and im not sure if its my boost kiking in because now im runnin about 20psi but i dont think its my clutch cause i only have 11,000 on my car and i dont really do any hardcore launching. Its kinda hard to explain this but im not sure how to explain it..... all i can really say is that when i punch it, the RPMs go upppp and then its like either turbo lag or soemthing kiks in and then it FLIESSS up.....


thanks for the help.....

Your clutch is slipping, sorry to say...

To verify, go out in 5th gear at 2500rpm, and floor it. Watch your boost gauge, and if your rpms jump right when boost hits but without you accelerating, then after a pause, the rpms fall back down then the car zooms then it means your clutch is slipping.
