So when you go WOT does the vehicle feel like its bogging right around the boost spike? If it was a misfire you would be throwing codes like mad by now. I have the same problem and brought it to the tuner to see what he thought, one pull on the dyno revealed that the clutch was slipping right at peak torque(boost spike) and that was the "bogging" sensation i was feeling. The wierd thing was after the boost spiked and then tapered, the clutch would grab again about 500 rpm after the initial slipping, which lead me to believe that it was not the clutch.

How many miles do you have on your clutch? stock clutch?

Hope this helps man.

Do you have the NLTS mod to your rom?
I had the same issue not long ago after adjusting my clutch pedal.
Would only do it when i went WOT,which is when the NLTS mod is looking to see if the pedal is pressed.
Check to make sure your clutch pedal is closing the switch when the clutch is all the way out.

Hey hey about 43k miles, stock clutch, etc.. It's weird, it's the opposite of what happens when your clutch slips.. The car surges forward like normal, and then when the rpms fall yeah it stops accelerating before it picks up again..

Not sure what the NLTS mod is

CBRicahrd, I'm thinking this might be the same situation.. I detected slight smell of burnt clutch after I pulled the car today, kinda confusing how the cars behaving right now.
